im following a blastcode tutorial to blow up a box. and part of the tutorial is to create a cube using curves.

i deleted the history, centered pivot and froze tranformations, then had to apply a solid shatter.

i got the above error.

i tried a surface shatter which works ok, but the tutorial has a solid shatter which i want to follow.

any help would be much appreciated

Blastcode only uses nurbs dosent it?

I'm not really up with nurbs or blastcode, bit creating a poly cube and converting it via sub'd's and then deleting history etc I dont get that error, I do get an error though saying that it came out unexpected (which it did) that was using the default values.

yeh your absolutely right gster. im following a tut.the box been created was using a NURBS curve.

i was jus trying and testing the shatter option in the (maya effects) menu with poly's AND NURBS as i was getting the same error.

HOWEVER, somehow problem solved.i restarted Maya and it worked. hhmmmm
