Instanced Chains with light bulbs Feb. 5, 2020, 4:03 p.m.

hi guys so im working on a video and in this scene a girl pulls a light switch (chain) which lowers a few lights on chains and the lights will flicker on and off. so far i have created the light flicker, and created a successful 14 prodedural hanging chains into piece = name rbd objects, with hooks at the top of each which i have made into static object. but at the bottom i want to copy/instance the light bulbs at the end so they dangle but idk how to import them i dont understand why theres any different from the chain links?

Huge Destruction SIM June 21, 2018, 2:27 p.m.

update , its finished. i created glue constraints and plugged them all in. managed to optimize enough to 3 frames takes about a minute or so. but the only thing is im having trouble with my glue strength. its either too loose or too tight and i have literally been sat here for about 8 hours straight. im using the bullet solver on the rigid body sim. would changing it to rbd speed up the process at all?
