Mmmm..no wind! About Truespace Archives These pages are a copy of the official truespace forums prior to their removal somewhere around 2011. They are retained here for archive purposes only. Mmmm..no wind! // Archive: Tech Forum 1  |   Order by default Post by splinters // Jun 22, 2008, 12:03am splinters Total Posts: 4148 Maybe I am just rusty or maybe it is the hangover:rolleyes: but I am having trouble with wind. I inserted a local wind object into a scene (tried with a global too) but how do you actually get the wind to do something when you run the simulation? Is the fan supposed to turn/animate? I am sure it is pretty obvious but I seem to be missing it either way. Post by Breech Block // Jun 22, 2008, 12:54am Breech Block Total Posts: 844 Hi Splinters. Its a long time since I used the physics engine in trueSpace; plus I only have version 6.6. However, if its the same, the fan should animate in accordance with the direction and speed you have set up. Have you got atmospherics on? Pretty hard to have any wind if you have no air. :D Post by prodigy // Jun 22, 2008, 8:48am prodigy Total Posts: 3029 Splinter check the mass of your objects.. by default the mass seems be too hight to be moved by the wind.. just put mass 1 on your object settings and try it again.. try either setting the wind with a higher value like 100.. Hope that helps. Post by splinters // Jun 22, 2008, 9:09am splinters Total Posts: 4148 I set the wind to 500 at one point prodigy.... Cheers for the tip though.
