James,
If you have tS 6.6 then you can use the particles tool do to this. I know
the tool is there in 6.6 and it might have been introduced in 6.5.
If you are on tS5 or previous then there is the Primal Particles tSX from
Primitive Itch:

<http://www.primitiveitch.com/php/product_index.php?uiCategory=Animate&Linux
> &Linux
I'm pretty sure this works with tS6 as well even though Scott doesn't
mention it on his website.
Finally, you can use the very old (from tS2!) but still excellent exploder
helper application. Save the tS object in ASCII format, load it into
exploder, set up the animation then save out to a new object:

As a last resort, hack your model into individual objects, assign physical
properties to the objects then use the tS physics engine to do the work.

Subject: [TSML] Exploding 3D objects
Hi everyone,
I am looking for a tS plugin that can create or 'breaks down' any object in
trueSpace so that we can apply physical properties and animate and exploding
sequence. I have a building and suppose to animate a 'demolition' sequence.
Is there any plugins that could do that?
Regards,
James
