Glad to hear that ...sorry for all the weird names I converted the animation with a program I had and did not notice the double mov added

Not sure why this is not showing

test.prj blob copy.tga hallotyest.mov.mov

Evilthom_mpeg4.mp4 Meows.tga Meows1.tga eveilthom.prj

Thanks I should have done that but it was late....

Painted a blob image to use as a decal for thom here is first attempt rather rough but just trying an idea Thom0.tga info on blob image program http://www.screencast.com/t/lGRL08IBfWB

Thanks it was a nice surprise I had almost forgot the contest....

Thanks Robert will check this out... did a quick trial and that seemed to help with a larger air drag

This was a rough test having a small model with sprites follow a path .

Welcome back

a_caped_thom.prj This was edited from the original post

I decided to start all over on it will see if it will behave otherwise will take up your offer

been playing with thom version but its not quite ready yet..cloth keeps misbehaving

Thanks but want to tell you that Avast is not allowing it to be run to install or if installed ..works fine if I disable Avast this is windows 10 64 bit computer Decided to update Avast and now it works with Avast turned on

boxtestnew.avi boxtestnew.prj Used some of Roberts suggestions and this is the results,,with a few of my adjustments ...might get super thom flying again

Thanks Robert Will check this out tonight ...I made the project simple to get basic feel will check your refinements then maybe get Thom the superman set up again

GIf File Project file boxtest.prj simple test of cloth as cape

test2_mpeg2video.mpg made a couple of adjustments...somewhat better results but I'll play with a simpler setup then transfer it to a more complex model

Thanks it acts really strange if touching the ground before thom takes off...it sticks to the floor... will play with this more

superthom.avi Playing with cloth as a cape for superthom.... not fine tuned

Thanks Robert I looked at yours and made a quick version of my own....(very quick cloth model) and it worked ... I can now tinker some more test.avi

Thanks will try this later ...do not remember having to set up deflector material on target

Not sure why but I cannot get a flat piece of cloth to act as cloth when it hits another model ,,,,not sure if its because of the last update to windows ...anyway it passes right through Can some one post simple project which works on their machine so I can see if its my machine or my 70 year old brain

This is rough idea and the mower is invisible Gif click to watch or look at quicktime grasscut_x264.mov grasscut.prj
