Hey, so I’ve read other post regarding shatter effect issues and i see a lot has to do with making sure that the history is deleted before trying to evoke the shatter operation. I’ve been trying out the solid shatter on random text created within Maya’s TEXT creation option under create. I don;t seem to understand why Maya keeps saying to undo/ delete the history after the text has been created. I know about deleting the history and yet the operations still won’t do it. The funny part is that the crack shatter doesn’t seem to be an issue for some reason. I know selecting a vertex anywhere will do it but if the crack shatter works then why exactly wont the shatter work on the same objects ? I’m just trying to practice getting better at exploding logos and stuff. I would like to do something like on the show called Fringe, where the word start almost piece by piece deteriorate into the background if anyone has seen it by any chance. Does anyone have any clue about why this happens on one and not the other and how to avoid this ?
