Ok, this might sound crazy... I'm new to RealFlow...
Anyways, is it possible to create custom Rigid Body Particles? Basically, I'm trying to recreate this animation (http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.cs.cornell.edu/~djames/bottledWater/unrecycledWaterBottles2005_845BPS_large.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.cs.cornell.edu/~djames/bottledWater/&usg=__hu4kjh7pT27ytwBi6UhSOJTWL-w=&h=1200&w=1500&sz=278&hl=en&start=1&um=1&tbnid=M9KtrL4hfVpcBM:&tbnh=120&tbnw=150&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dwater%2Bbottles%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US:official%26sa%3DN%26um%3D1). Except I want to create a container around the bottles so they form a giant pile/tower.
I've already created a clean triangular bottle mesh and experimented with it as a rigid body. It works great on a pregenerated scene level, but I'd like to create thousands of bottles if possible.
If anyone has any idea on how I'd achieve such a thing that would be awesome! Thanks in advance!!
