Flock of birds
-
bala2007 2 posts16 Mar 2008Please i need to know how to animate flock of birds that will have rope attached to each of the birds at one end and to a building at d other end of the rope. Something like the pisa animation by Tyson. I have an idea about reactor. -

20 Mar 2008LOL
and then take the order at table 3. please -
20 Mar 2008Well what I did was first animate the flock of birds using the max crowd system, then I created a script that attached the end of a spline to each bird. Then the script animated the points over time, so that the ropes followed the birds. It was a fairly complex system, and not the simplest solution either (I'm sure there are better ways to do it).
Hope that helps

21 Mar 2008what the heck is the crow system? is it anything like it sounds? is there a system to specifically create a flock of birds?

21 Mar 2008Oops...spelling mistake...I meant "crowd" system

22 Mar 2008Nice...
There is also a squirrel system... a badger system... and for those moments where you are really stuck I like to simulate a herd of angry dwarves using the 'midget' system. -
