Particle/ Grid animation with texture

Post by chriss0212 » 09 Jul 2018, 09:35

Hi all...

i have a problem in animating different geometries by one texture...

what i want to do:
i have 8 different geometries site by site. This "geometry group" should be in a particle system to make a bigger grid. I need to animate them by a texture in wave animation. Problem is: i need to control each geometry separate with this texture. Additional to the wave animation i want to push some geometries which are side by site in one direction. I thought this could be very easy with the particle system. But because every single geometry in the group has the same pivot i can't control them separate, just in a group.
No i thought: ok... maybe i just need 8 particle systems and feed them with the same texture, but it is very difficult to calculate all offsets in the texture translation because it seems, that scaling and translation properties are not that easy to calculate.

Hope you understand my problem... not that easy to explain ;)

Greetings

Christian

I think i am on the right track ;)

But i need a separate particle system for each geometry.
