Hello, I would just like to know some things about two specific plugins:


1.) Where can I get the DynaWave plugin? Does it work in TS 7.5? How much does it cost in $(USD)?


2.) Where can I get the Cloth Motion plugin? Does it work in TS 7.5? How much does it cost in $(USD)? Can Cloth Motion be used to make character clothing?


I always wanted to make large real-looking oceans in Truespace, plus I really want to make clothing for my characters without modeling them from cubes, and then adding subdivisions.


Also, can I get these 2 plugins separately from the "paks"?


Thanks in advance! :)

As far as I know the only place you can still get them is the paks....


If you want to do oceans I hope your render farm is up to it. I work on a standalone PC and a small trial I did of water drops in a bucket took a day or so.

Alain does still have DynaWave listed on his product page:

But at that price, you may get more bang for your buck by getting it bundled in one of Caligari's Paks (not sure which one comes with it).


I think DynaWave uses a basic spring system, like some cloth simulators (or it appears so). At any rate, it isn't a full-fledged computational fluid dynamics simulator so you certainly won't be waiting long at all for results. Mostly for ripples, I guess you'd say - not so much for big splashes and particles. I've used it lots in the past and it is quick.

I found this the other day, it includes Cloth motion, but I haven't tested my download yet -

Hope this helps,

Wow! try the links (question marks) on the left - I just came up with a demo of Bitmap Genesis from one of them.

Where's the help files for ClothMotion? I tried it out, and can't find out how to use it. Please help.


Thanks for all your help
