Blobby Particles Melting Together

[dunkel3d]

hi guys.
i am trying to study a way to accomplish a complex thing.

i have 2 character....very easy character...let's say 2 sphere..a small one and a big one.

i wanna cover with blobby particles the 2 spheres and let the 2 character melt together .
as far as i know only the same particle object can melt so if there are no other way i do not know, i have to find a way to move the same particle object on 2 different objects....not so easy.///..

till now i tried this:

emit particle from first object using surface emitter ,then using parentU and parentV and the goal i attach the emitted particle to the object.

then i say to the emitted particle to emit only one particle for each already present particle of the secondaryParticle object i created with particle -n secondaryParticle and give that secondary emitted particle the original particle position with a runtime expression.
till here all fine./....my new emitted particles follow the original particles....but when i create the same setup for the second sphere i cannot pass the particle position to the secondaryparticle object...couse in the runtime expression in secondaryParticle i say that the position is equal to the first object position......

prehaps im following a not perfect way to achieve my fx....
hopes in your help....

thanks in advance .

this is what Joojaa told me 2 years ago....but i never had finished that work we found another solution!now the problem is always the same.
i m trying to play with goal but....
===============
I never actualy combined 2 particle objects. They never were 2 different obejcts in the end i just convertted them to one.

BUt yeah it can be done just make a case switch that is dependont on emitter.

Now fields is another matter entirely.

Alternatively the particles can copy teh fragmet arrays eachrfame form their parent object no biggie jsut 1 getaAttr and one eval per particle.

joojaa told this.
so ......this means i have to get the particle shot by emitter1 and tell those particle to have as goal obj1 and particle shot by emitter2 have as goal obj2?

how to accomplish this?

I really wondering the same thing.
How to make particles from two different emitters to melt together?

[joojaa]

create emitter 1 create emitter 2 delete particle shape 2 open up dynamic relationship editor and hook emitter to particle shape 1. Done.

Awesome THANKS!

yeah i know how to emit the same particle and get blobby particle melt together....
my problem is different.
once i have created 2 sphere with surface emitter i let emit the sphere....then i give an initial state to my particle so that the sphere start with particels over.
then i assign the 2 spheres as goal fo the particles, then i ass goalweight PP so that i can , using the component editor, assign to the particle on sphere 1 sphere1 as goal and so on.
once i play my animation i have particle following the sphere....cous the goal keep the particles attached to the vertex.

but particles are not attached via uv.....the goal is where the vertex are(if polygone or on the cv if nurbs).
my method work better with poly thatn with nurbs.....i hve found very complex to tell the particles to stay attached on the sphereUV.

then using goal, another problem is that i cannot add an emitter and tell that emitter to emit particles couse my new particles would be attracted by the goal vertex if i use the same particle object.....

so is there a fast and simple way to tell particle to get attached to a moving sphere or a moving character.... and not use goal?
