Please tell me How to make in XFlow animated geometry (rotating propeller)? Static geometry is analyzed well, but it is impossible to create or import animated geometry (geometry with motion) - rotating propeller
Thank you and good luck!

I'm wondering about this too. How do you import animated geometry into XFlow? Ideally I want to export out of Maya but can do a conversion if needed.

You have to define an angular law on your propeller geometry.

Shape behaviour: enforced

Under Angular laws something like this: -11.7881*360*(t) will define 11.7881 rotations per second
