#Splash IPAS suggestion

Here's a suggestion that I think would be a natural for IPAS. How about simulating the effect of an object dropping into a 'liquid' – causing circular waves, splashing drops, etc. ? I'm sure you've seen those slow motion film sequences that demonstrate this sort of thing – just thought it could be useful to have an IPAS that does the same… Eli

RIPPLE IPAS that ships with r2 and r3 does exactly that! John Tissavary (La Luna cie)

I'll have to take a closer look at that. Does it also throw off 'drops' from the material that the projectile object splashed into?

No, but that would be easy to add in. You could use RESHAPE IPAS to create the drops easily and have them unhide at the correct frame in using the keyframer unhide option in R3, which you should get if you don't already have it. Makes R2 worthless. John Tissavary (La Luna cie)
