Hi!

Looking for someone who can explain what happens at 00:30 sec in this video:
https://www.amazon.com/clouddrive/share/im7trZXZ9RkfOMWQ4SSs5vKVPbSSEpgez8xtEhvhKw3?ref_=cd_ph_share_link_copy
the other steps seem okay to follow up on… and so does the second video.

and/or

b)a little semi-procedural c4d-setup to create cracks/gaps in geometry (no simulation needed) by painting vertex maps onto geo (as you suggested).

If you are interested in my offer, please contact me at klimas[nospaceinbetween]md[at]gmail[dot]com for further details.

Thanks.

edit: oh and whatever the outcome might be or whatever c4d file I’ll end up with,
I’ll post it for all the other average-Joe-type of guys like me to mess around with.

Best,
Michael

Hi Dr. Michael,

You can check the tutorials about R18 and Patrick Goski has shown how to use the Knife tool there.

As mentioned in an earlier post:
If you like to tear things via Splines, you might cut the surface with splines and use then the created parts as “clones” in a Fracture Object. [@ 02:50]

Since you mentioned that time is a key factor in your exploration, perhaps check out the options for a 1on1 training. There all your questions will be answered, if technically possible.

I moved your second post into the previous thread.

Take care.
