Hi,

I have a rope with two pin constraints that attach it to a fixed collider on one side and to a rigidbody on the other side.

The rigidbody moves in the scene. I need the rope to affect it physically - pull it down because of the rope's mass. As the rigidbody moves away and the rope stretches between the fixed point and the rigidbody, it should also pull the rigidbody sideways, toward the fixed point.

Is this possible? Changing the particles mass for the rope did not change anything in this regard.

Thanks

Hello,

I'm trying to modulate the disk radius every frame.  Should be very simple:

public Obi.ObiEmitter haloEmitter;
    public Obi.ObiEmitterShapeDisk disk;
    void Start()
    {
        disk.radius = .1f;
    }

    void Update()
    {
        disk.radius += .06f;
    }



And, indeed, in the inspector the radius increases over time, but the result is not rendered -- it stays at whatever radius is set in the inspector before I enter game mode. In fact, whenever I set the radius in script, the result is not rendered, even if I simply assign it a value in Start().  Any suggestions?

Is there a way to make soft body bounce from the floor? Similar to what can be achieved with Physic Material and Colliders in standard Unity's PhysX. Bounciness is missing from Obi Collusion Material. Thanks in advance for any reply or suggestion how it can be implemented.

Just purchased and am really impressed with Obi Cloth overall.

I am using it to build a run time level editor in Unity. 

I have a prefab for a character that is lying down with a blanket on top. The blanket is an ObiCloth. The configuration of the cloth was copy and pasted from the ClothStaticMeshCollider sample scene.

My prefab works when I drag and drop the prefab from the "Project" window in the IDE at both build and run time. The cloth properly collides with the colliders, etc... Looks great.

However, when I try to instantiate the same exact prefab from a script, the cloth passes directly through the colliders, and drops through the ground and into the bottomless abyss.  

This script is triggered at runtime when I point and click where I want the object with the cloth applied to it to appear.

I instantiate the prefab with something like the below snippet:

Hi dear people of Obi Cloth community!
We recently tried to work on a project using Obi Cloth,
The project itself is very simple, just one character trying different clothes.

The problem is we feel like we're missing the right 3D models required for a good simulation,
So basically what we would like to offer is a Job/Guidance offer (paid of course)

for someone who's experienced in Obi Cloth and believe he could help us with:

• Finding the right 3D models (we prefer a woman with a dress for the beginning) - (We thought about Daz Studio?)
  
• Suggest us the best ways and good practices to use in our specific project (including obi properties etc)
  
• Help us achieve something like the following: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBfxnayIlOY
  

Hey,

I was wondering if there was any way to calculate the current length of a rope between two specified control points.

Is this possible?

Thanks for the help!

I just got done debugging an awful bug related to sub-stepping Unity physics. 

According to http://obi.virtualmethodstudio.com/tutor...aters.html, substepping Unity physics is necessary when using more than 1 substep and performing accurate collisions with Rigidbodies.

I have a game where the player controls a quadcopter drone. To simulate the propellers of my drone, I apply an upward force in FixedUpdate. I have the drone calibrated such that the force applied in FixedUpdate is equal to the mass of the drone, such that under normal circumstances, the drone perfectly hovers in place.

I've been messing around with ObiRope, and got it working somewhat well, but I found that whenever I had an Obi rope in the scene, my drone was no longer capable of hovering in place. I thought maybe the mass of an attached rope was pulling the drone down. So I started decoupling the rope and the drone. I got to a point where the two were in completely separate GameObject hierarchies, nowhere near each other in the scene, and still the presence of the rope in the scene was causing my drone to be incapable of hovering.

Then I started playing around with the ObiFixedUpdater I was using for my rope and I found that if I disabled "Substep Unity Physics" on the updater, my drone was magically able to hover again! I dug into the source code for ObiFixedUpdater and found that it directly calls https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference...ulate.html. So I began to realize the issue with my drone. My drone was falling because Physics was being simulated, including gravity forces, but my FixedUpdate was not being called during this extra Physics.simulate.

I searched these forums and found this post: http://obi.virtualmethodstudio.com/forum...ml#pid6497 where it is suggested to use the ObiUpdater.OnBeginStep callback instead of FixedUpdate to apply forces. So this leaves me confused again and with more questions:

• Doesn't calling Physics.Simulate in addition to the normal unity physics update loop essentially cause Unity's physics simulation to proceed faster than realtime?
  
• Am I supposed to disable Physics.autoSimulation to use substepping with a FixedUpdater?
  
• Wouldn't I effectively get the same result from reducing Unity's physics timestep rather than doing the complicated process of substepping Unity physics and then replacing all of my FixedUpdate calls with OnBeginStep callbacks? (Or am I supposed to have FixedUpdate in addition to OnBeginStep?)
  

Hi everyone,

I am quite new to Unity and Obi Cloth. 

I was following this movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=usXaFr6N630&t=106s

This is exactly what I am trying to do, but for me it looks like my avatar is not interacting with tshirt. I attach screens how does it look in my project. 

Basically when I press play nothing is happening, when in play I go to the scene view and rotate my avatar manually I also do not see any movement of the tshirt. I really do not know what I am missing.

Thanks in advance for help.

Hi everyone!. I am daniel. I have been a game designer and programmer at unity for several years.

I am thinking of buying the plugin, but I am not sure.

I am creating a virtual clothing tester online. I need to create different types of fabrics/tissues and clothes (Cotton, Silk, Jean, Leather, etc.) With dinamic sizes that fixes in the customized avatar that the user creates with his body measurements.

Do you think it will be possible to create the different interactions between the cloth of a particular fabric type and the avatar skin with different types and sizes of body?

For example the image i attach.

I don't need animations. Just that the clothes make the necessary folds / wrinkles when the clothes are big or doesn not fit well.


Thanks in advance

Hi all,
I'm new in Obi Rope
I have a problem with Obi Rope.
I want to prevent 2 or more ropes go through each other. But I have a to do this.
I want to make a game like the image below
