I saw this channel and was very surprised because when I searched for RealFlow tutorials there weren't any, it looked very few, but here there are lots of things I can learn! Thank you!
I really cannot thank you enough for the amount of knoweldge you provide us with, in each video, for free. It's just outstanding..Thank you and please make more tutorials!
Super informative video and one of the best tutorials for hybrido and foam. Thank you! Do you think there is a chance that one day we will be able to simulate secondaries for dyverso particles? There is hack for it but it is not intuitive at all.
If by hack you refer to the technique with the filter daemon to move particels to a second domain where the density is lower - then yes I believe this is the only way. Sry!
Do you have any tutorials on setting up and rendering the splash and foam? I have Krakatoa but I am not sure what the best settings are for foam, splash, mist. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Sorry for the late reply, just now catching up on old comments.. .The channel hasn't gotten the love it deserves during the pandemic... I did use krakatoa a loooong time ago but it's not something I have access to at the moment I'm afraid... Maybe in the future. Idk if you're in maya or max but I assume it should be interchangable to some degree, this guy has some tuts: vimeo.com/60950346 This is old but it's one of the tuts I was looking at back then... th-cam.com/video/r_XE_8WWJxQ/w-d-xo.html
@@Davesplaining I tried but couldn't do it, probably I'm doing something wrong. Also is there a way to import particles to maya without the realflow plugin like in mac that doesn't have the plug in
Yeah for sure you could. Sometimes if the legs are too thin so that you have to use crazy voxel resolution then you can scale up the geo and apply the same scale to your daemons.
@@Davesplaining Thanks for your reply, I'll try that. It would be awesome if you could make a tutorial of something emerging from the water, like a spaceship or something!
@@gwhiteooo ah the ol' spaceship, I never really understood why spaceships come out of the water... but since you're requesting it I just might! Will look for a spaceship model :)
Hi, Sorry not at all well versed in cinema, I don't use it. Do you mean you exported from RF standalone to cinema4d? And when you import you can't see? Have you installed the RF Connect plugin?
Hey Dave! I have a little question about crashes when doing these hybrido sims. Plan was to to something similar as you did here and I made a first run for the domain, set that to cache, then another run for splashes, and finally for foam.... but after some frames (number varies), RF simply closes/crashes. I have tried lowering the number of particles, set the simulation threads to 1, increased sub-steps in the hybrido simulation preferences, but nothing seems to help. Have you seen such problems before, and how did you fix it? Thanks!
Christian! Sorry for the late reply. It sounds a bit off that you'd need to do that however. It seems single threaded would be slow for Hybrido. I do remember back in the days this was the way with standard particles for example. You aren't trying to use open cl acceleration by any chance? That'd be something to try disabling for hybrido.
@@SSHUBOi I'm sorry for the late reply but I really don't use 3dsmax at all, not for 18 years at least... Sorry can't provide any info how to handle the last part inside of 3dsmax. You should render the main fluid as a transparent refreacting object.... and the particles should be imported wth RF-connect, I guess that's available for 3dsmax too? Then it's just the matter of applying a fairly basic white material, maybe some glossy refractions... It's really not a complex procedure as long as you can import the particles.
after the watching that it is looking like that you are doing this for only your purpose, not education purpose I mean sometimes you add some element very fast I am confused how did you add this in 5:43 you add gravity in node panel but you did not tell how we can add this and where to find this type of option I think you need to update your skills about as a tutor
I'm sorry if my free tutorial offended you. I'll admit however that maybe I wasn't clear that this video has pre-requisites. If you're watching a hybrido/foam-tutorial it is assumed that you know how to add and connect a gravity daemon. The only reason I "add it very fast" is because this is the 8th video in a series and I can't cover every step in detail every time. Feel free to revisit the crash-course video I made, or go to the official realflow-channel to pick up some of the basics as you seem unhappy with my content. Regardless - best of luck!

Thanks for the tut, but how did you render the foam in Arnold?
I just imported the alembic particles using the arnold standin-object and put a fairly basic white shader on them.

@@AdrianLiranRoll I'm working on tutorials for a workflow without the rf-connect plugin...
@@Davesplaining that woudl be awesome for Maya
Could you use this technique to make somebody walk through water? Love the tutorials!
Yeah for sure you could. Sometimes if the legs are too thin so that you have to use crazy voxel resolution then you can scale up the geo and apply the same scale to your daemons.

@@Davesplaining what about submarine ?!? ;) waiting tutorial for that !! ^_^
nice video. i export the scene in c4d in file (bin) and i cant see the foam. can you recoment something?
Hi,
Sorry not at all well versed in cinema, I don't use it. Do you mean you exported from RF standalone to cinema4d? And when you import you can't see?
