Using the cycles renderer in Blender 2.82a and hair particles I have created the grass field below:
Now I want to apply wind to the field but when I try using the wind force field it blows my plane down but the grass stays in place. Am I missing something or can it not work like that?
I am sorry I am still really new to blender so trying to learn as quickly as I can but this has stumped me. Any help would be greatly appreciated
I can not duplicate this, Or rather, I haven’t found what you might have done to cause this. After the particles and the hair strands are grown, then as soon as you add the wind force ( to an empty !! ) then it affects the hair particles…and you should be able to scrub through the timeline and see some effects…
You didn’t by accident add any other physics to the plane?
Steps…Grow grass on the plane, which I see you have done…
Add an empty…and with empty selected, add force>wind…( empty allows you to rotate the wind for direction).
Add another empty if you want randomness with it selected, add another force>turbulence…
Scrub through the timeline and should be good to go…Just tweak settings to your liking.
