It is also now possible to set fractures to propagate through geometry only at a given frame of an animation.
Other changes include an Only Breaks option, which causes geometry to fracture without collapsing entirely. Performance has also been improved when working with high-poly deforming meshes, like a character’s skin: in the 3ds Max edition, Thinkinetic says that simulations update up to 2x faster. It is also possible to exclude non-animated objects or those with jaggy faces. In the 3ds Max edition, it’s geared towards adding the dust in an external application, with a new Alembic exporter for exporting geometry caches.Īccording to Thinkinetic, benefits over 3ds Max’s native Alembic exporter include the option to combine all of the objects into a single cached Alembic mesh for faster viewport playback. New Alembic exporter makes it possible to export geometry cachesĪs with Pulldownit 4.5 for Maya, which was released last year, a key focus of the update is to improve workflow when adding dust or fine debris to a fracture simulation. The update adds a new Alembic exporter for exporting geometry caches to other software, and improves performance when working with high-poly animated meshes.
