Even with a two hour interuption for football I’ve added two new pages to the impworks site tonight: one for VueDynamics and a contact form on the contacts page. Despite my best efforts in the limited remaining time tonight I have yet to succeed in Bifurcating my virtual lava flow.

V5I: Progressive Drop Python Script

Saturday, June 17th, 2006

I wanted to create a heap of objects for a picture today but Vue’s drop puts all the selected objects on the same level. I could have selected and dropped each one by hand but that would have been laborious and I was feeling lazy so I created a Python script to do the hard […]

V5I: Mill in Fog Take 2

Left my PC on overnight rendering a new version of animated fog made with VueDynamics. Increased the number of sheres from 400 to 600 and added a drift from left to right to the random walk animation with spin on the spheres. Also tried a heavier standard Vue fog in the atmosphere to fade the […]
