Am trying to texture a rigidity map using a ramp.  The object is a ribbon and I need the edges to be less rigid and flap in the wind but the middle to be firm.  When I applied this there is no effect what so ever.  It’s as if there is no rigidity at all.  They only way I can get any rigidity is when I turn on the global rigidity in the Dynamics Property tab but obviously this controls the whole thing.  Is there something I haven’t turned on or am missing?  I even tried painting it by hand, and using the vertex map.  Still nothing happens.

Any help at all would be great!

cheers,

Bryan
