I know I can make cloth stop falling from body using particle attachment with dynamic type and compliance value, but is there any way to attach cloth on specific position of actor's local space and edit the position in inspector or in editor with given value? Thank you

This is the default behavior of ObiParticleAttachments: when enabled, they'll attach the particle(s) at their current position relative to the target transform. You can just move the cloth and/or the target around to change the attachment position.

If you need to force *only* the attached particles to move to a specific position before enabling the attachment, you can also do so (even though it will stretch the cloth and cause it to "jump" during the first few frames of simulation, which is pretty much always an undesired effect). The manual contains sample code for a component that will force the particles to move to the target transform's local origin: http://obi.virtualmethodstudio.com/manual/7.0/scriptingattachments.html

kind regards,

Thank you for explanation! And, can I ask you one more thing? We currently have to generate obi distance field in every 1st time the player starts to play via scripts. But obidistancefield.generate() is pretty slow with the condtion that we set - max depth =7, max error =(1e-05). I know this is pretty picky and heavy to any platform to generate distance field , but we do really need this condition for this project. Is there any way to make this generate coroutine more faster?

The current implementation of ObiDistanceField.Generate() cannot be made any faster. To get any significant performance improvement would require rewriting it from scratch, possibly using a multithreaded method or a GPU implementation. This is not high priority in our roadmap, as distance field generation is primarily used in the editor in most cases.

And about particle attachment, I'm trying to set particle group from none to dynamic in obi particle attachment of clothes asset, but I cant find how to do this in script. Can you teach me?

About setting the attachment's particle group at runtime, see: http://obi.virtualmethodstudio.com/manual/7.0/scriptingattachments.html

Code:

obiSkinnedCloth.GetComponent<ObiParticleAttachment>().particleGroup = communicate._obiSolver.actors[0].blueprint.groups[0];

All cloth assets blueprints that we have have no particle groups, same as body asset blueprints.

If your blueprints have no particle groups, how can you expect the above code to work? this code assigns the first particle group to the attachment, if there's no groups in the blueprint this will throw an index out of bounds exception. You can't attach a cloth with no particle groups: it stands to reason that you must have at least one group of particles to attach. Maybe I'm misunderstanding your goal?

Furthermore your code assigns a particle group belonging to an actor that may not be the one being attached, which of course won't work: there's no guarantee the first registered actor in your solver is the same cloth whose attachment you're modifying. Correct code would be:

Code:

obiSkinnedCloth.GetComponent<ObiParticleAttachment>().particleGroup = obiSkinnedCloth.blueprint.groups[0];

or, depending on your particular use case:

Code:

communicate._obiSolver.actors[0].GetComponent<ObiParticleAttachment>().particleGroup = communicate._obiSolver.actors[0].blueprint.groups[0];

This code doesn't make any sense: you're attempting to retrieve an actor component from the solver gameobject, which will throw a null reference exception since the solver does not have such a component. Make sure you understand GameObjects and Components clearly, it's pretty important to familiarize yourself with the basics first.

kind regards,

The reason why I thought I can set particle groups of cloth particle attachment component, as soon as I set target to body gameobject which has mesh collider of the body fpx mesh, and obi collider, in the cloth gameobject that has obi skinnedcloth, obi skined cloth renderer, through the code, some of the cloth asset objects(Like I mentioned, none of them  and body blueprint do have particles in thier blueprint but they dont hav any particle groups) automatically get particle group from none to "All". 

(06-09-2024, 10:56 AM)gahyun11 Wrote: If I understand clear, both cloth and body have no particle groups in their blueprint, cloth asset gameobject's obi particle attachment has no change between setting particcle group with "none" and "all" even if I set target of the cloth to body?
