How to create footsteps in grass?

(1/1)

Tobias Jansson:
Hi!

I am making an animation of a heavy droid in a forest and I need to create footsteps in the grass (the grass is made with forest pro). I have a few ideas myself but would like to hear your views..
Thanks!

Interesting project. Some ideas:

- Using a scale map
- Creating a spline for the footsteps, which is used simultaneously as excluding area for the main grass, and for a separate object to create the stepped grass.
- Creating a fake hidden mesh for the footsteps, which can be used as excluding area in Forest 3.7.x. Same idea as the excluding spline, but probably it would be animated more easily.

Thanks! I will try your ideas :D
