If the blobs are close enough to spheres, it still should work…not perfectly of course… Some drops (to be precise those which penetrate a big sphere,…

Akram: With that order of loops I think you wouldn’t actually need the isDeleted. It loops through the small spheres and deletes one at the end of eac…

Yeah it works. Just tried it with Shell Modifiers and it did work. It took more time and memory than with Normal Modifiers (in fact I had memory issue…

All you have to change is instead of for i in selection do you write for i in $box* do

Yeah…if you replace the code in the first function in my script with the one Dave posted, it should work with VRay. Also, if you use single VRay Mats …
