My first attempts at using cloth physics on a dino i made.

in OnChainArt4 years ago

Don't mind the lowkey disturbing dino, this is my first attempt at using the cloth physics feature in blender. The first gif is with self-collision off, as you can see how the cloth just falls into itself. So I tried to fix it by adding self-collision.

As you can see that didn't work out at all, at the moment I've got no idea what is causing the cloth to act like this. I have a guess that it's colliding with itself every second it moves, but isn't that what self-collision is for? I don't think it should work like this.

Srsly don't mind the disturbing dino, I created it for testing purposes.

All help or tips and tricks are welcomed!

Well it's still kind of cute? XD

So first stupid question: does the cloth object have thickness? (asking because I can't see it's too quick for me)

Other questions which may be relevant is what's its wireframe like (generally for cloth you want quads as square as possible, and more is generally better but also computationally expensive) and what settings have you been messing around with.

The second gif is hilarious, reminds me of a sim I unfortunately didn't render out where when I was just starting to learn cloth dynamics (I'm still learning), the pants on the character I was animating ripped themselves off the character and condensed into an angry ball that writhed in the air for a second or so before launching itself at the camera XD

I was using solidify with -0.1 or -0.01, does thickness matter that much? :D. I used the plane with 50 of the thingies when you spawn in an object, my terms with blender are not that good yet so hopefully you get what im saying haha

It does seem to need some thickness to work properly :)

50 of which thingies? There's a lot of thingies XD

How long you have made 3D animations?

I started a few months ago and just recently I picked it up again.

For some reason, the second GIF does not work? I wonder if it's only for me

last 2 gifs are not loading yea

The first 2 are gifs, the last 2 are just pictures. For me everything is working right now.
