Is there a way to transfer the colors from mograph object to thicken object?

[Sweeping Motion]

I have a cloth simulation made up of clones with random colour applied through plain effector with random field. This is then piped into user color node. However it's all gone when the simulation goes into thicken generator. Is there a way to get that attribute through?

Hi Sweeping Motion,

Not directly, here are three workarounds. Please note that I have placed the Delay into the Vertex map to keep the colors if the clones come too close for a moment.

Here are the three; perhaps check what would work best for you.

CV4_2024_drs_24_MGch_01.c4d
CV4_2024_drs_24_MGct_01.c4d
CV4_2024_drs_24_MGcf_01.c4d

Please test them carefully, as I just created those and have not tested them in production.
