Breaking/fragmentation of meshes

[Forlax]

What is the best method of fragmenting an object. For example, a glass breaking after being dropped on the floor. Or spaceship exploding.

Blastcode is probably the best, theres a free trial of in if you google balastcode for maya.

If not you can use the "shatter" effects found in the dynamics menu set.
