rrateme95 262 posts17 Aug 2008Well I was just sitting down today and I was about to doodle a bit.... and then I thought "hey you know what... why not do an animation with robots that do the doodles" so ive brainstormed some ideas and designed soem of the characters.... e.g. theres one which is like a helicopter (inpspired by T's roboball, thanks
) and it shoots out blobs of paint... so in simple terms... it will just be a ton of robots makin a large mess ... only problem in my mind right now is that I want paint marks left on the ground whenever a certain part of the robot touches the ground... how would I be able to do this, would I need to do maxscript (just to let you know I dont have a clue on how to do maxscript 
) -
23 Aug 2008nope, no scripting involved. However, the easiest way requires knowledge of Particle Flow, the big particle system inside Max.

I know the last one doesn't seem like it would demonstrate a paint splatter technique, but if you do the tutorial, it will show you techniques you could apply to your paint splatter, like particles bursting out based on when something touches the ground. -
