Oh my soft! (Redux) (Patreon)
Content
I have been in email contact with Storm's developers, as well as in contact with someone who owns Storm.
The feature I want, soft bodies, is not ready for prime time yet. They are estimating it will be in there in less than a half year. I will wait. As far as the main function, the granular simulations.. That may or may not ever work directly in Lightwave because Lightwave does not support alembic files where the number of points can change over time. But frankly my dear, I don't give a shit. I just wan those delicious, delicious soft bodies. It is everything I wanted from Houdini, at less than a 10th of the cost. Remarkable!
In other news, Suki's render estimate is in the single digits of hours remaining for the render. I still need to make sound effects when the rendering is done. So it will be another day (or more?).
