VFX Graph morphing animations

Hey there,

I just try to morph an animated mesh smoothly to another one like in this video

I achieved to get the animation on the mesh running via a skinned mesh renderer component inside the VFX Graph. This works fine. But how can I morph to another mesh since just exchanging the mesh results in popping the particles immediately to the position of the other mesh. So how can I get a smooth transition to the new position?

Cheers, marc

 

Did you try moving them towards target position, for example like it does Mathf.MoveTowards?
Instead of setting position directly from mesh/map you would move them just a bit towards target position or you can use velocity to simulate attraction or other more complicated stuff.

 

I want to do a similar thing, isnt there a simple youtube tutorial that shows how?

In my case my 3 objects to morph into each other are not animated, just static meshes, does that make anything easier?

 

I would probably do something like this:

You evaluate two positions, one for first skinned mesh, second for next one - using two sample skinned mesh nodes.
And lerp between this positions using some arbitrary time.
