It seems like a modified rising whistle comet is the closest starting point but I’m struggling but I’m struggling with the ability to create the 3 stages. Using the effect editor I’ve…Read More

CKx707 replied to the topic Random but synchronized break orientations? RA57207 VDL
Thanks Drew, that makes sense, smart design. For some reason it looked like they were randomized relative to each other but I must have misinterpreted what I was seeing.

CKx707 started the topic Random but synchronized break orientations? RA57207 VDL
Hi all – Below is the VDL I’ve created to sim Racoon’s Migraine (single shot for now). The effects are pretty close but I am curious if there is a way to link the orientation of the ring with the horsetail but allow them to be randomized together. I see that I can hard code the orientation of both in the effect editor to get them aligned but then…Read More

Thanks Drew. I realize most of your users may not be extensively using consumer cakes but as a backyard hobbyist I’m excited for a broader catalog of sims to help plan my shows.
For now I’ll play around building some of the key effects and when I get something close I’ll post the VDL in the forum for peer review, suggestions, and in case it…Read More

Will the submitted (or winning) VDL submissions be made available as examples for review?
as an example the crossette effects in Winda’s Criss Cross cake in the supplier library is not well matched but the winning submission for Ta-Dah has a similar effect and it would be helpful to be able to build on these examples to make/improve other c…Read More
