Hi everyone.
In a point cloud, I create an unsimulated ICE tree, I create some strands, and then in a simulated ICE tree I initialize the strands dynamic framework.
My problem is that, if I set the particles shape to anything that isn’t “segment” (I would like it to be a box), it doesn’t loft the shape along the strand, even if I activate the “loft along strand” option. Why does this happen? Or is it impossible to create strands dynamics with anything that isn’t a segment shape?
Thanks
