Need help - I forgot where is this feature

Support Particles and Physics Simulations
#1

Hi,

I remember that in Blender (I don’t know which version) there is a feature where I can create a cloth simulation on a simple mesh. Then later on I can copy / apply this animation to a more complex mesh.
But unfortunately I forgot the name of this feature and where to find it.

May anybody knows where to find it?

Thanks…

Mhm. Not heard of that but you can use a subsurf to improve the mesh where the simulation is running on. With export and so it is only possible to apply that simulation to an identical mesh.

#3

Transferring from one to another mesh… maybe?

Modifier ‘Data Transfer’ can also be used to copy data from one (animated) object, in this case a cloth mesh to another. Hope it helps.

I can’t really think how up-resing the simulation data like that would make any sense.

You can copy the Cloth Simulation parameters in the oultiner and re run the simulation.

Hi,

thanks to all - I think it was the ‘deform modifier’ where a simple plane was animated and later on using deform modifer a chain mail object was deformed.

Surface Deform modifier or Mesh Deform modifier
