Hi Matt
I remember using softbodies to achieve that, there is also a script called Particle Deform, but it seems to not be online anymore

I'm having problems remembering how to deform a mesh (or surface) using another object.  It involves some concoction of native XSI tools and behaves similar to the old Konshus tools for Softimage|3D if anybody remembers those.  Basically, you have a sphere and you drag it along another surface.  The surface's points get displaced by the sphere - and stay displaced.  Kind of like clay sculpting.  I'm not talking the push paint tool, because that only displaces along the surface normals.

 

Anybody remember the steps to set that up?

 

 

thanks,
