Help Interact with the object from two ends

[whatever]

I want to interact with Obi soft body as an elastic object in virtual reality. I tried using the example object from 'Obi/Samples/Softbody/DeformationGradient'. Even with the Obi collider added to my hand bones, I could barely interact with the Prism. It would somewhat respond, but I couldn't do any of the pinching/grabbing action I hoped to perform. I could grab the base with no issue. I tried to have at least two different 'Obi-Particle Attachment's on both ends and interact with the object from two ends using two bases. But the example only has the 'bottom' 'particle group'. Is there a way I can directly interact with the prism object without attachments? If the attachment is the only way forward, how do I create particle groups so that I can attach them to different rigid objects and interact with the elastic object through them?

Hi!

the base in that particular sample scene is a regular Unity transform/collider, which most VR input systems are able to deal with natively. Obi is entirely particle-based, so you'll have to write your own VR input controller for dealing with particles, something you can do using the particles API.

But the example only has the 'bottom' 'particle group'. Is there a way I can directly interact with the prism object without attachments? If the attachment is the only way forward, how do I create particle groups so that I can attach them to different rigid objects and interact with the elastic object through them?

You can create particle groups in the blueprint editor. See:
http://obi.virtualmethodstudio.com/manua...setup.html

Then you can select them in attachments, to attach them to any other object.

kind regards,
