Stretching verts uniformly

[Aroosh]

Hello

I have a softbody that looks like a block of iron which has about the same number of particles and vertices.
I noticed that when I stretch either of the sides the vertices do not stretch uniformly.
Can you point me in the right direction as to what parameters I should tweak in order to make this stretching uniform?

Thanks
Aroosh

Hi,

Use Parallel evaluation mode instead of Sequential. See:

Hey!

So using parallel evaluation doesn't seem to make a change. Is there anything else I can do?

Thanks

That means simulation is not the problem. Rendering might be, see below.

Yes, you may need to use more skin influences to bind the mesh to the simulation. To do this, use a custom skinmap in your ObiSoftbodySkinner component, set the "Max Influences" to something other than the default 4 (6-12) and click "Bind". This will drive the motion of each vertex using more particles, which may improve skinning smoothness.

kind regards,
