Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

rigid bodies-set end
I have a scene with a lot of blocks that fall from the sky.
They land on a table. They are all active rigid bodies.
Is they a way to set the end posiiton for them, but have the dynamics take care of the falliing and bouncing?
:banana:
Thanks,
Ari

but that wouldn't give you ..... wait a minute!
What if you were to make your "blocks" goals for particle blocks?
Then it "should" work closer to what you want, but since it's a flat table, you might have to key it after a certain point?
Not sure tho....

Don't know how it would look but at least they would end up where you want when played from end to start

Can you explain a bit more what you mean by doing it backwards?
Thanks,
