Cartoon Collisions Collisions are one of
HyperMatter's strongest features; you can collide
soft objects at will, and they will always deform
correctly. This one is a classic of cartoon
violence, now in 3D!

Using the Follow Constraint
The Follow Constraint
is one of HyperMatter's most useful and powerful
tools; using it you can both control an objects
motion through space, and control integral parts
of the object with total realism. This tutorial
shows you how to quickly make a shoal of swimming
Jellyfish. Click on the image to get there.

7. Physique and HyperMatter-
Together At last!
Many users of
Hypermatter are also regular users of Kinetix'

animation package. The following solution
provides an ingenious compromise that allows both
programs to work together, adding more bounce to
your characters!
