Hello Sir,

Thanks a lot for your help.

I took back this discussion here, cause I can't use reply, look like it's closed.

https://cineversity.forums.maxon.net/topic/402/progressive-360º-rotation-with-sound/4?_=1682322115635

I have configurated my wind turbines and now they make music in rythm. I'm super happy.

Here is my scene : 4 Windturbines and one pyramid.

I Wan't to activate the windmill with a Sphere fields and desactivate everyone who are outside the sphere field. I try a maximum of combination with blending and nothing work for me.

Did I miss something ?

It's same for the light of the pyramid, the field didnt take action on the light : https://we.tl/t-2cb9Mq89tV include light file

I think I miss something with the field.

Best regard,
And have a great day.

Hi stretch-equal,

Please post here only to solve access or other site Issue problems. Create a new entry here: no access.

Please do not post Q&A themes here anymore; thank you. The thread 360º is not locked. If a thread is locked it looks like this

Thanks for the file. The Plain effector has no settings indicating anything that would lead to growth.

You need to set the scale up in the Plain Effector. The Field for the Cube needs to be set to "Add". If it is "Normal", then that is all you get.

Please have a look here.

Hello @Dr-Sassi

Thanks for your feedback.

I'm really sorry for the new topic in wrong section, but I can't create a new topic or reply to the old post. It was locked for me and also other member notify that.
Did I have to send you a MP ?

Now it's open do you activate something ?

Thanks for the file. The effect I'm looking for is about activating the rotation or light when the square/sphere is inside the part concerned, and let the other desactivated.
Is it possible ?

Thanks for your time.

@Dr-Sassi Hello.

I finally get all access, thank you so much.

I'm back on my project, the light are finally set.

The rotation with sound is tricky.

Here is a picture to explain :
Controller 1 is linked to the rotation of the wind turbines.

I know want to activate the rotation with sound effector inside the capsule, and freeze outside. Then I make jump the capsule

Thanks for your time, Field effector is a pain to configurate for me.
Best regard,

[Dr. Sassi]

Hi stretch-equality,

The thank goes to the admin team, and I guess it goes to the never tired support of Michelle. Thanks from my side as well.

Thanks for understanding the whole process. I have moved this post to this thread. Please only one theme per thread; otherwise, it gets noisy and hard to follow. Especially for others when they search for something.

Here is the file on how I understood your last post.
CV4_2023_drs_23_MGgr_21.c4d

Add your sound, and please, if you recreate it, disable the little"compression Icon", so it can grow. (Yes, I have shown you before a different solution. But repetitions are boring Just kidding, but I love to share different ways.

It is getting close to midnight here, so I call it a day.

Cheers

[stretch-equal]

Re,

Cool for the different way.

I did the trick but all my turbines keep spinning, the capsule didnt work on them.

I don't understand why

[Dr. Sassi]

Hi stretch-equal,

Please have a look here:
CV4_2023_drs_23_MGgr_22.c4d

It is perhaps just a question of setting those Capsules up.

Enjoy

@Dr-Sassi
Hello I put a video to show.

The effect inside the capsule is like there is no freeze effect. It's bounce back.

I think I miss an option or a value somewhere. Do you have an idea ?

Thanks a lot for your time Dr Sassi.

Thanks.

Hello,

Here is it : https://we.tl/t-5TJNs9uxwO

Thanks you.

[Dr. Sassi]

Hi stretch-equal,

Thank for the extra effort.

I had hoped that there would be a project file included. The movie doesn't show any parameters or setups. What was I supposed to learn from it? Sorry, I try not to be difficult here. If possible, skip images and videos, just the file; it tells much more than anything else. I need to see how the setup was made.

Please, always use the file; images and files have so little data. Thank you.

Cheers

[stretch-equal]

Hello.

Thanks for your patience ahah.

Regards.

[Dr. Sassi]

Great, thanks a lot, stretch-equal.

No patience is needed here; all fine, and thanks for keeping going!

Please look at the image; I have moved the (yellow) sound frame up. If it goes all the way down, you always have rotation. I don't know what you would like, but after a few teaks of the lower line of the yellow rectangles, it should work just fine. There was no audio file, so your settings will require adjustment.

Let me know if that works. (Please know I'm on Pacific Time)

Cheers

[stretch-equal]

Ok !

I try but the capsule didn't act has activation. The 4 turbines spin.

The idea is to make only one turbine (inside the capsule) spin and the other stop.

So I can move the capsule and make other spin.

[Dr. Sassi]

Thanks for the feedback, stretch-equal.

Based on that file, I was able to explore it quickly.
I have left my private test audio file in it this time, so you can see (and hear what I have.)

The problem was simple: the Null you have as a Parent of the group is not aligned with the object's axis. In this way, the clone axis, as far as the Capsule is concerned, was not the same. Again the clone center is the parent Null, but the object where somewhere else. Even if you placed them over what was visible, the actual clone center is the Parent Null in the file you sent. Confusing, sure, but keep that in mind, and you are fine.

In the file below, they align, and all is fine.

Let me know if you want the file removed; I will do so in my morning.

-- Link removed, per request. Project is in progress and the results will be shared when ready. --

Project Files are great! Thanks for sharing.
Enjoy

[stretch-equal]

Thanks you a lot !

Yeah can you remove it please, its a real project ahah.

Will get back to you with the video. Thaaaank again !

If you provid me a post adress in private, I will send you chocolate from switzerland !

[Dr. Sassi]

You're very welcome, stretch-equal.

If you have more questions, please never hesitate to ask.

The offer to get chocolate from Switzerland is super tempting. Literally, very sweet of you! Thank you very much! But it certainly is not allowed to send food to the U.S.; I don't want to bring anyone in trouble.

Your offer made me smile, as I have visited Friends in Switzerland often or had the pleasure of being there for a while while traveling to Italy or France. (I lived in Berlin and Munich for two+ decades. So that was easy)
Your offer made me think about the decades of traveling in Europe and the little mountain of chocolate I ate. That is already a gift.

I wish for your project and look forward to the movie. Thanks for the offer!

ENJOY!
