Learn how to use real world physics to drive advanced simulations within Maya. Use fields like gravity and vortex to create incredibly realistic reactions between objects. Take advantage of constraints to create working catapults that can hurl boulders through the air. Or shake things up with a Massive wrecking ball. Maya Dynamics teaches you quickly and easily how to harness the power of physics to create amazing simulations.
