Everything seemed to be working fine, fine as in, the collisions still don't work right.
I decided to skip away from POPs for awhile and learn something else in the mean time. I used the book, " The Magic Of Houdini" as a guideline to learn a bit about DOPs. I did a few exercises in the DOP chapter. Since the book is based on an older version of Houdini a few nodes are different, but i managed to figure that out.
Beginning exercise
In this exercise I made a simple setup for applying RBD. Made 2 RBD objects, applied gravity and a ground plane. Made them collide with the plane and each other.
RBD Exercise
Volume Representation & Constraints
For this exercise I had to firstly play around with the collision guide geometry. It made me remember that I learnt about it before last year in Procedural Effects class. I then had to put constraints onto the object.
Constraints Exercise
Multiple Constraints & Limits
In this exercise I had to make a door and have an object hit it to "open" it. Used 2 pin constraints on the door to act as its hinges. A RBD object was added as the object that hits the door. Added a small cube near the door as a doorstopper that limits the swivel movement of the door.
Multiple constraints exercise
Affector Matrix
In this exercise, I learnt about the affector matrix.
Affector Matrix exercise
Multiple Objects
In this exercise I learnt how to create multiple dobjects in the RBD Object DOP. Another way is to use the Copy Objects DOP.
