hmm. i need a solution for animation possibilities (not nurbs but subd). - like
moving a hidden grid or cube through a body and you could animate that
boolean-cutthrough. kinda like when you move through a laser-wall and you get
the contour-lines. or the 3d xray technology that "slices" through your body. i
guess need to use really dense polymeshes for that.
regarding the other question, this shattering script is not bad. - i wonder how
mill done it in the radiohead musicvideo. afaik there was an article/ interview
with jordi once on this and they done it in maya/ hardbodies... just wondering
if there was any scripting involved like this shattering-script or how the
pieces were exactly made... (?)
