I have a single image of a coat that I am trying to animate. Wind and cloth effects are what I need but the problem is I want to set 4 different sources of wind for different directions and make it so the wind blows from its own plane and doesn't affect anything behind the plane

Found it. In case somebody stumbles upon the same problem. Click the wind object -> then Physics Property tab --> in Falloff section choose Z Direction to +Z. The wind now blows strictly "from" the wind emitter in direction of the normal, not from behind.enter image description here

    $\begingroup$ Hi, thanks for the post. This site is not a regular forum, answers should be substantial and thoroughly explain the solution and required workflow. One liners and short tips rarely make for a good answer. If you can edit your post and provide some more details about the procedure and why it works feel free to restore it, otherwise it may be deleted or converted into a comment. Perhaps add a few images illustrating the workflow and final results. See How do I write a good answer? $\endgroup$
