Hi benjamin! This plugin is amazing and so grateful for the tutorials available. I'm currently working on something and I was wondering is it possible to simulate particles affected by sound in real time?
Hi, Benjamin! The FlexHopper add-on is just awesome! Thank you so much for this development! As for the *force fields* component, where can I find more info on how to use it? Thanks again, this add-on is just amazing.
Is the PPT used in this workshop shared online? If yes, where is it? I like to say thank you to Benjamin, this is one great achievement in the grasshopper world! edit: I can not find the files on Onedrive using the link shown in this workshop, seems like they moved them.
Hi Benjamin! Thank you for making this workshop available online. I'm checking the icd website today (icd.uni-stuttgart.de/?p=23155) to download the handouts but all I see is "Handouts and demo files will be provided on day one of the workshop." Is there anywhere else I can download the handouts?
Somehow the demos and handout are not visible on the ICD page anymore (or did i miss something?). I'm not studying at ICD, just interested in the Workshop. :)
Hi Anas. Should be possible. You can change inflation parameters like pressure and volume during FlexHopper's simulation runtime. What these changes are based on is up to you....
hello, thank you for your work...I'm tring to start the first simulation but as soon as I push the button component rhino instantly crashes (I tried to reduce the number of particles but it don't work also with just one) I'm working with my laptot with a geforce920mx, do you think it is an hardware problem?
Hi Alessandro, did you make sure to really closely follow the instructions described here: github.com/HeinzBenjamin/FlexCLI#Instructions ...and that you have a dedicated graphics card that can run Flex (scroll all the way down on the github page to see the requirements)
Hello. Unfortunately that's not possible. The reason is that the internal Nvidia flex engine doesn't allow access to force values. So there's no way for me add this functionality. You can change velocities but no forces
Thank you Benjamin！ One more question, is it possible to constrain all the particles in one plane? I've tried to create a gap (two plane constrain) and put the particles inside the gap, but the particle can still escape.
@@ltlitetools6975 hi! Sorry for the late reply. Yes the approach with two planes should work. Make sure that they are facing each other and don't face in the same direction. Also make sure that the gap is larger than zero and that your collision distance is smaller than that gap size..
@@benjaminf.3760 The velocities are set for the systems initial state, or is it possible to change the velocity of particles individually and dynamically, according to a vector direction?

MaxD hey. Check out the latest version of flexhopper on food4rhino. The example files should more or less all be there
Hey Benjamin, I found the files. Thanks for you fast reply!

@@benjaminf.3760 thank you so much for the fast answer...probably I have got a driver problem, I will try on my workstation at home, hope it will work
Is it possible to constantly add a changing force to one specific particle in fluxHopper?

I'm trying to do some planar linkage movement simulate using fluxHopper :)
