Fallen Tree Crash

[cb2000]

Hi,

 is there way to lay a tree as a fallen tree on the road. I tried hard bend for the trunk and then when i add collision plane for branches and update max closes.  Do you have any samples for a fallen tree?  Thanks

Even using collision in  after mesh  mod crashes max

Increasing min distance in prevent penetration to like 0.2 m will crash

Hi cb2000,

 

Try to convert your plane (road) to an Editable mesh.

Thanks!

it still crashes. So if  I animate my tree bending using wind and there is Object reaction modifier (like an asphalt a tree is falling onto) in after mesh modifiers section the program will crash max if I scrub time line

Hi,

Here is the scene. If you go to dead branches and add object reaction as box  then click copy then go to branches 2 and paste max 2020 will crash

Or animate tree and add object reaction box for branches and scrub timer will crash it  Thanks

actually just adding the box as object reaction and the dragging time slider crashes max because of animated branches by the wind.

update:

looks like converting to editable mesh fixed it.   I was using editable poly
