Flexible metal plate

Post by ilko »

Hi All,

I want to create flexible/deformable metal plate. Should I use soft body for this purpose or set of rigid bodies connected with constraints?
Is there exist some common method to do this? Is there exist some way in Bullet?
Thank you in advance.

I'd totally look in soft bodies, as this is what you're trying to really do.
I've read in the past the solver can go awry when you're simulating a lot of connected constraints... the message was referring to a rope bridge or something.
