Hey, I’d like to know if/how to create a genode tree for creating “dents” on a mesh. To elaborate more, let’s imagine a subdivided plane. I’d like to use a few instanced objects to “imprint them” into said plane. Maybe it’s because it’s late at night and my brain is asleep already, but I can’t th…

[image] How to Turn Simulated Particles into Real Objects Particles and Physics Simulations I saw that and liked it (although it’s something I’ve never done, either, so I will have to learn that), I will test it out. Ultimately, it’s all up to what my project partner agree…

[image] you may want to look at geometry proximity too.

Thank you, this helped a lot! I’m now facing a new challenge here. I’d love to create two instanced of the base plain. One would follow it’s original trajectory, deleting parts affected with dents Second would do the opposite - leaving only dented mesh (further subdividing it) and deleting the re…

This somewhat reminds me of the Squish GN-addon it would get you closer to the result you are looking for I think… [image] https://twitter.com/xeofrios/status/1541880615942819841?s=20&t=8hjnFcrFP3JUn93FKkeumw in this thread… [image] Geometry nodes exploration: Human rig deformat…

Thank you, but I still don’t understand how I should capture only those altered faces? advanced_dents.blend (3.7 MB)

Have a look at this thread here, I give an example file and go into quite some detail…

Hope that helps.
