i'm trying to create an animation where a couple of stacks of poker chips fall onto a craps table. i'm trying to use reactor but my results haven't been great. either the chips don't bounce off each other and just stack up or they practically explode off each other and bounce way too high. i could use some help and i'm willing to turn it into a tutorial, giving credit of course to whoever helps me get it right. i'm more than happy to email the basic max file, its just a cylinder (poker chip), RBCollection, camera and a box for a table top.

this is not for a paid job or a client by the way. it's just for the sake of learning. so show off those mad skills :)

I may try to help you, as I used reactor much. I also wrote a tutorial on reactor where a basketball is falling through the basket.

You can send your problem files to my e-mail:

zelal@bangla.net

Please write the details of the problem again in your e-mail and also tell what do you expect from the simulation in case I forget the fact.

Regards.

YOU NEED TO PROVIDE BOUNCE AND COLLISION FOR THE REACTOR, DONT KNOW WHT KIND OF REACTORS YOU USED....Maybe it might help if you post your reactor parameters.
