Hi Sean,

 

  I have been researching and trying to figure out the setup for a matrix and I am having a heck of a time.  Is it possible to take a set up the channel configure for a matrix on nutcracker the folds a 50 pixel string 2.5 times.   

 

Meaning my matrix is 30 pixels across and 20 pixels down for a total of 600 pixels. My pixels start at the bottom run up 20 pixels and then down 20 pixel and then up 10 pixel.  The next line starts up 10 down 20, up 20 and so on and so on.

 

 

I have not been able to figure out how to set this up in nutcracker.

 

Thank you for any assistance

Troy

We don't have fraction folds in nutcracker 3, we had them in nutcracker 2. So you can only fold strings in even multiples. 1,2,3,4 .etc.

Now, I think there is a way you will be able to do this with the custom model.

Go to Vimeo and look at last video I posted (search for sean meighan)

I explain custom models.

Custom models are going to expand again, stay tuned.
