That's fantastic, Tomaya! Thank you! I've been learning Max particles and dynamics at work, in conjunction with Fume, but I have yet to work with Thinking Particles. Now I'm interested!
I'm curious about the fragmentation though. Is there any way to get something like a "voronoi" fragmentation or are you pretty much limited to the quads and tries that exist in the mesh?

Sorry tim , i forgot this point ...fragments shapes , you can design your own fragments by using the edges only option and shape merge :

I thought that the first video was your reference, very realistic!!!
For the smoke on top of the building did you used FumeFx?
Bye

yep madmatt , FumeFX . The " group as object " option is very helpfull in TP , with this option active ,the building fragments become an object "unique"
then it's very easy with fume , the entire building is an object emitter and a colider too , just increase the voxels resolution to the limit of your Ram and that's it , 2 hours of dynamic calculation for this one . Render , 1mn30 by frame.

Speaking of which, is there way to tell what this limit is without having to do a sim first?

You'll find the limits here :

Hello, nice work in here,
I have one question, I'm trying to make a mesh for fragment with your method of shape merge -edges only.
But the problem that I have is the next, when I make compound shape merge, this is make only in one face not in the other, how I can make the broke in two faces? thanks.
I attached the image .. the broken are only in one face ..

Because shape merge works only in 1D so do it on a plane first , you'll manage the thickness after ( shell , extrude , fragment with TP ....)

Ok, thanks ..
I think about this, but how you manage the broke meshes? You did it these for your building?
Thaks in advance ...

Heya,
I've set a floor node for SC (I used a box), but the pieces keep falling through the floor. I can see that the pieces react to hitting the floor, but they end up falling straight through.
Any ideas?

hi
ok... ....try to increase the subdivisions of the box (tesselate) and the voxels grid of the floor : SC use voxels by face for the collisions , that's for the floor , but you can also increase the edges samples inside the "frag group " itself , on top of the TP tab . :thumbsup:
