Blender Particle System Vertex Group
For the domo i apply it on flag and make the wave with the help of wind.
Blender particle system vertex group. In this tutorial for blender i show you the basics of using vertex groups along with hair particles. Because the vertex group gives specific vertices weights and the multires modifier changes those specific vertices ie more are added positions are changed etc the vertex group has changed by the time the particle system sees it. Immediately all particles rotate to the right see particle size1 jpg if i hit tab to enter edit mode and tab again to enter object mode again the particles switch to their original position see particle size2 jpg but the vertex group does not effect the size. Obviously there s a use this vertex group to control particle emission feature for particles.
In the blend file above i have a simple. Vertex ground is a powerful tool that can give you more freedom on while working on physics modifier or particle system. You should be well grounded in the basics of blender. Blender applies the modifiers to the object in the order they are in in the stack see more here.
All particles still have same size. Particle system vertex groups the vertex groups panel allows you to specify vertex groups to use for several child particle settings. Hair particles are not created in the assigned vertex group hair is created in all sides of the mesh ignoring the selected group and leaves hairless areas in it. Go to edit mode select a face or faces assign a vertex group add a new particle system hair vertex group density select the vertex group that you create not sure if this a bug but i m not sure this is the correct behavior if so please let me know.
You can also negate the effect of each vertex group with the checkboxes. After the particle edit mode doesn t show the same order in hair and it s impossible to comb or add. In this intermediate blender tutorial i review the use of vertex groups particle systems material settings and shape keys. However it doesn t seem to work the way i want it to.
