		<description>I must be the only stupid one here :/

I find that my object (a flat-ish cylinder) explodes outward (away from the Deflector) in a spherical formation like it&#039;s expanding from the center. Even when I added secondary fragments it did not fix it, neither is there any secondary fragments.
I did find that when I copy/pasted the script it said there was an error (I&#039;m using Max2011 and Vray 2.00)
When I added Gravity and a &quot;floor&quot;, I found that the fragments just bounced off the floor and continued into space while those that did not make contact with the floor continued but over a length of a huge number of frames slowly started descending.

Please some help :D/</description>

		<description>The scripting isn&#039;t hiding the Geo sphere created at the beginning. The particles are being deflected, no difference to the sphere though. 

Any help?</description>

		<description>WHY did the script disappear?

well, here it is:


on ChannelsUsed pCont do

(

pCont.useAge = true

pCont.useTM = true

pCont.useShape = true

)

on Init pCont do

(

global ChunksArray = $Fragment* as array

)

on Proceed pCont do

(

t = pCont.getTimeStart() as float

if t &lt; 0 do

(

NumChunks = ChunksArray.count

for i = 1 to NumChunks do

(

pCont.AddParticle()

pCont.particleIndex = pCont.NumParticles()

pCont.particleAge = 0

pCont.particleTM = ChunksArray[i].transform

pCont.particleShape = ChunksArray[i].mesh

)

)

)

on Release pCont do

(

		<description>Really nice tutorial... Question: is it possible to use a Super spray as a spray of deflectors... totally perforating your structure?</description>

		<description>Well I love the tut but I can&#039;t get anything past step 7 to work. All it dose is make a particle system but it won&#039;t effect the geosphere of it&#039;s fragments</description>
