Introduction to Maya - Rendering in Arnold
This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

Replicating a Specific Simulation
I'm looking to replicate the simulation used in this video.
Knee Surgery: Torn ACL - YouTube
Basically, I'm trying to recreate the fibrous effect that occurs after the tear, around 32 seconds.
If anyone has any insight to how this can be achieved or what type of simulation was used (nCloth, nParticles, etc.) that would be great.
Thanks in advance.

Any way to figure out how to emit the fibers at the ends of the tears? They seem to be particles, cause they pop on and off.

And thank you for the input, Dave and Stwert! I think that effect combined with the procedural bump maps in the end could work. I think I could even overlay the bump maps in AE, to make it work well.
I'll try it out and post more if I have any questions. Thanks!

I got the simulation to move and tear in a manner close to how I want it to. The issue though is that the particles are connected in between two plains. In order to get the particles to stick to the plains, I upped the stickiness attribute on both plains and the particles to 2.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOTt...ature=youtu.be
Now when I play the simulation the particles snap back, hit the plains and become stuck to the plains. I quickly realised this is not the best way to anchor the particles. Can anyone think of a way to anchor them? I know with nCloth you can use "cv's" but as far as I know you can't use "cv's" with particles.
Many thanks!

Me and LanHikaru were working on the tearing simulation together and wanted to update you guys on its progress:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxZWtbmRGkw
The next goal is to get the tear to happen in the center. I'm guessing there's a way to make the constraints in the center to have less glue strength to the ones on the plane.
Thanks for all your help you guys.
