Dirt plowing tutorial request

[dv2000]

Hi,
Currently there are absolutely no way to have dirt simulation in 3ds max. I think tyflow can do it since it support grain sim.  Can we please have a tutorial for dirt plowing. (Create a realistic dirt) We need to create an animation where a tractor plows through the ground but don't know how to do it. 

Thank you!

I totally disagree that there is no way to make that effect in 3DS Max alone, however with much less trouble you can do it with Tyflow.
But reading your question again, I realized, your whole workflow is wrong.

You don't make specific effect, and then place the camera.
You should do exactly opposite.
First make a camera shots and then see what you can do with effects in particular shots .

Hope this helps.

The problem is to get the best settings so dirt will look like dirt and not like sand.  And how to convert flat surface to chunks of dirt.
