I came across this short little Mairmy simulation the other day and thought it was awesome. It was created with Mairmy a crowd simulation based Maya plugin from Basefront. One of the cool things I found out was that they offer Mairmy Express which is a full functioning version of the plugin. It has a some limitations, mainly the number of agents you can work with and export. I have not tried it yet, but I will as soon as I have a chance and with let you know what I think. If any of you guys get to play with it first post your creations. ~Cornell
