Very cool........!

looks nice! a bit strange that the box stays on top of the rocker though

[DaForce]

that is pretty cool!!

nice, i really like the one where just loads and loads of blocks fall and just hit the ground - looks great.
Moblur is great, especially on the last one!
Love the rendering style.

Just think one or two of the weights need a bit of tweeking, but i know how much of a pain it can be to constantly tweek these things especially when you've simulated one thing and like a certain aspect of it.

hey someone found the reactor tab! HAHA j/k

[SonOfNimrod]

very nice...i tried something like that in reactor once but couldn't get the dynamics and collisions like that. any tut's you recommend?

[pskdude]

he

i like the first one it rocks! =P

Sweet

I love these - I have played with reactor quite a bit but never really had the patience to develop such a great sense of weight - I love these, my favourite is when the big ball just lands onto of the bricks - I think it might have somewhat of a softbody it seems to squash down which is great.

[Pixelab]

Very funny ! It may be intresting to see the big ball falling in slow motion

Is this possible to do that in MAX 7 ?

[Blitterswitch]

I really liked the video.

Any tips on the render settings for animation? I thought you might have been using the new render settings in vray final but just noticed that you have used RC3.

You have inspired me to have a play about tonight - last time I tried something like this the reactor thing just kept crashing after it have calculated about 2 seconds of the animation - that was with 32bit max8 though, I am interested to see if the 64bit 3ds max 9 has resolved my problems.

Good work!

funny tests

quoted for agreement, lol.
Can't wait to see what you'll pull off commercially from it!
