«--´¯`---…·´--».-.- ▓▒░░( HoRope R21 Fix )░░▒▓ -.-.«-`·…---´¯`-----» If you have tried following this tutorial in R21, and wondered why HoRope doesn't exactly work correctly, well, thanks to Phillip Kortlang (@sxbysx on Instagram), I am happy to share this solution with you all. 1.) Open HoRope.pyp in any text editor. 2.) Scroll to line 185, which should read as: def CreateControls(self, poslist, controls, bones, op): # Generates control nulls 3.) Find line 193, which should read as: root.GetFirstTag()[c4d.RIGID_BODY_DYNAMIC] = 0 4.) Add this line of code underneath it: root.GetFirstTag()[c4d.RIGID_BODY_HIERARCHY] = 0 5.) This block of code should now look like: def CreateControls(self, poslist, controls, bones, op): # Generates control nulls root = c4d.BaseObject(c4d.Onull) root.SetName('root') root[c4d.NULLOBJECT_DISPLAY] = 13 root[c4d.NULLOBJECT_RADIUS] = op[c4d.HOROPE_RAD] * 3 root.InsertTag(c4d.BaseTag(180000102)) root.GetFirstTag()[c4d.RIGID_BODY_DYNAMIC] = 0 root.GetFirstTag()[c4d.RIGID_BODY_HIERARCHY] = 0 root.SetAbsPos(poslist[0]) root.InsertUnderLast(controls) 5.) Save HoRope.pyp. 6.) Restart Cinema 4D R21. 7.) Enjoy.

thank you. After simulation, how to creave uv for this ropes please?

amazing tutorial! exactly what I needed to find out how to make the ropes for my project - but no matter what I try, it wont add the hairs to my ropes :/ but I combined the horope plusing with the rope plugin reeper for twisted ropes, but it wont work even if I make the sub object from horope editable :/

Can you post a link to your file so I can take a look. Hard to trouble shoot any other way.

Hello I'm using R20 W/ octane and I was wondering how to get the uv mapping correct. The texture seems to move on its own differently from the motion of the actual Rope sim which is a cool trippy effect but not the desired outcome.

Thank you for the tutorial. Can you have any tips that i can fix the rope length when using horope? Because i need to simulate pulley animation. Pull up something use the rope.

I would use spline dynamics for your situation instead of horope. Just KZread it and you should be able to find a nice tut to get you up and running!

Hi, I have downloaded all the project files but can't seem to locate the 001_dynamic_ropes folder or the 'Therapy' folder that is shown after 3.21 mins of your tutorial. I'm keen to get this working so any advice would be a huge help. Thanks

Great tutorial, easy to follow and good pace! I'm getting an issue with the roots and targets not working on r21. The ropes are pinned to the original position of the targets and roots, but they won't follow them if they're animated.. Any idea where it could come from?

I do know that HoRope at its current build is not compatible with R21. Another artist might have figured out a solution to this which I hope to post today or tomorrow when I have some free time to test. Will update you when that happens. Thanks!

very nice tutorial. thank you!! Im wondering why I get the not so smoothy surface inside the curve or corner of the rope and it only shows in redshift render view. Is it something related to the sweep?

Hey! Thanks! Can you make sure you turned off the visibility of the “bones” that HoRope created. Let me know if that solved your issue.

Hey Sim Therapy. The ends of my ropes are staying in position and not following the root and target keyframes. Any idea how to fix this? James

Everything worked fine except, the damn model at the knot, plalls and puil;ls apart > The control points stay in place, but the knot starts free falling. Any idea?

Hi, when I am rendering out the rope, the subdivision surface is not working. The rope is a bit bumpy, but in perspective, it looks smooth. Do you know how to solve that?

Doesnt work in R21, can we get an updated build soon by chance?
