Hello, Any info on how to create the data for the DynamicWind?

I see that the USD files have a Json associated and also inside the USD File, the tree skeleton have two vars

unreal:dynamicWind:jointNames
unreal:dynamicWind:jointSimulationGroups

Thank you. Are their plans for a tutorial on how to create procedural vegetation presets, so that the skinning, bone reduction etc. can be done in editor?

Thanks. Just discovered this, but when I try to enable voxel shape preservation on the base mesh after importing the example USD (that I exported from houdini), I get a crash every time. Are there any settings I need to be mindful of when importing to unreal?

Hi Jamie, it looks like the part 2 website is down. Any updates on when it’s going to be up again or the reason why it was taken down?
