shattering object demo

Hi here is a demo blend file that shows some basic ways of shattering a static object and shattering a dynamic (moving object)…

Could use the method to build all kinds of interesting things… that explode…:smiley:

-use blender 2.42 prieview33

oh yeah… drive the cube into base of pillar using arrow keys! anyone know a better way of doing this… please tell me!

Yeah, I guess that’s the concept. It didn’t look like you had the empties parented to the object. I would think that would be the best.

Yes, it’s nicely made
Thank you for share

really a simple and good idea, if i have time, i’ll use it, thanks…

It didn’t look like you had the empties parented to the object

I added an empty (on collision gets added in) with 2 other empties parented to it… these parented empties then add in (using the same collision info) the shard pieces at the right co-ordinates…

working on them giving off nice particles when the hit the ground or whatever… will post it too
