Hi,

I want to create a wood fracture similar to what is presented at around 0:15 in this video:
https://www.cineversity.com/vidplaylist/r19_voronoi_fracture_reference/r19_voronoi_fracture_reference_geometry_glue_1_settings

I was disappointed when it’s not at all discussed how to create one.
I’m trying to create one but its a bit tricky to set-up the pattern.
Like in the video above, I’m trying to hit this pattern:

You can see what I have so far here:

It fractures even at the end of the wood. I only need the center.

Thank you for looking at the problem.

Hi bentraje,

Please have a look here (@ 04:00 [min:sec])

I have made some few changes in your file:

If you select your previous object (paste it into the scene) and the new object, then anything different will be easily seen in the Attribute Manager.

Main parts: I increased the Point amount [source] and used a Cluster Glue.

You wanted the center only, then decrease the size of the Spherical Field to your liking, (after clearing the cache). In addition to this, you can specify the chunks with a MoGraph Selection.

All the best

Hi Dr. Sassi,

Thanks for the file. Works as expected! Yes, the Mograph Selection helped a lot to isolate the effect.

Have a great day ahead!

You’re very welcome, bentraje, thank you as well for the reply.

With MoGraph Selections, you have all the new Field options available. This is certainly a new level of control.

Have a great day, as well.
