Particle Flow Along Nurbs Uv, For A Polygon Model?

[seemaj]

Hei friends,
I am working on some effects for making a girl disintergrate into ashes/sand. The look I'm trying to get is so that the particle flow along her geometry before breaking off her to fall. My question is that if I have a polygon model of the girl, is there a way to attach nurbs patches( and hide them)to her geometry so that the particles flow along her ? I have been trying to use need parent UV with the polygon model, but its not flowing as it does on the nurbs. Does anybody have any suggestions? PLease , any advice would be most welcome
Thanks

u can simply flow particles along surface via assigning texture rate or GoalPP if the object is a simple primitive object
flow along surface doesn't work with Poly, but if u insist first convert it in subdiv then in nurb; Duh ven thinking it is passe

Well..how bout using the wrap deformer to wrap the nurbs model to the poly mesh with the renderable option turned off for the nurbs mesh ..that way youve got the nurbs model following the poly mesh..as far as dis integrating goes theres a tutorial by Alex Alvaraz for free at www.thegnomonworkshop.com ..check it out

hope this helps you..
