Vellum Playground - 03 - Cat Balloon - Part 2 - Inflation Simulation
🕑 Added 2022-12-16 10:00:24 +0000 UTCIt’s time to take an in-depth look at Vellum’s inflation simulations. We’ll explore the process of animating attributes within the Vellum solver and gain a better understanding of its capabilities.
We can use Vellum to set up Balloon Constraints as the starting point for our feline project. By incorporating Stitch Constraints, we can achieve a realistic foil balloon look, complete with creases and folds. Additionally, utilizing Pin Constraints gives us greater control of the inflation simulation.

I went again node by node; I am entirely out of ideas about why it does not perform any sim. I understand this takes time for you, but as a beginner, It is hard to find the mistake. I am sure there is a mistake; I doubt Houdini randomly does not work, but where it is, I am not sure.
Please check whether you activated your solver again (brain icon) and check whether all key frames were correctly set. If you follow each step exactly as I show it, it should work.

Hi Roland, Is it possible there is some part of the tutorial missing? I followed your instructions step by step, and modifying Vellum Pressure Rest Lenght does not trigger any simulation. The balloon stays still. Thank you
