In this tutorial we'll combine several X-Particles dynamic objects to create a reactive animated water body.
Set up the base water animation using xpOcean
Create a dynamic xpFluidFX water body with collider geometry
Add foam and spray detailing using xpFoam.
Deform the xpFluidFX and xpFoam particles using the xpOcean object.
Set up a hero ocean and an infinite background ocean.
Composite in After Effects.

Great Tutorial again! You guys are doing a terrific job developing X-Particles. Also you have by far the best video-manuals and tutorials of any application I know.
You did it again Bob! Same teaching style and creativity! I love it!
Absolutely superb!! I need to find the ship's wake tutorial next ;)
Great tutorial and awesome to see such a good workflow with XPOcean
Another Amazing tutorial! Thanks Bob, great job!
Good to watch, not to use
Does not support many sockets
Also, imaginary prices are not valid for the average user, but for companies
Good luck to companies
Lovely tutorial. I am using latest XP as of Feb 2024 w/ C4D 2023. xpOpenVDBMesher won't cache w/ the xpOcean as it's child. (As a modifier) Unfortunately I am having to leave the xpOcean modifier 'live' (turned on). Makes for very slow playback.
Damn, i can't wait to put a neon sign in the middle of the ocean... haha but for real! great tutorial! when you add the plane at 50:00 i was mind blown. Wouldn't have thought to do that
Walmsley! putting the motion in the ocean!
How would you render a boat traveling through the water with this setup?
If you're referring to the boat bobbing on the top of the waves I was wondering the same thing!!
And I just thought they were recreating Hot4D at first, but now I understand why this is such an amazing feature
Pretty amazing stuff
Brilliant.
Now I need a reason to make some tentacles coming out of the ocean 😂
A kid holding out a chicken to feed his octopus friend. Make it a tribal octopus with cool markings and everything, lol
I bought this plugin and I can hardly do anything. This simple tutorial does not correspond to what the plugin does.
The xpFluidFX does not match what happens in the tutorial with what happens to me.
Perhaps it is because of the plugin version, the xpFluidFLIP appears to me and not in the tutorial.
I don't know what happens but I am very disappointed.
Hi Christian,
Have you taken a look at our Video Manual? - Learn how every part of X-Particles works.

-Thanks
thank you! amazing as usual!!👏👌
Awesome tutorial, thanks!
sooo coool thx Insydium!
Brilliant tutorial! What I was wondering: does this trick with the seamless extending ocean and masking also works when you use absorption and scattering? With cycles4d for example? The simulated water should look different then, since it has real depth in comparison to the extended plane. Or am I wrong with this?
Did you find a solution, bro？
Great tutorial... but how do you do a Standard high res render and get the foam to show up (as opposed to a Viewport render)?
You may use the XParticle materials
amaaazing!
cool! What do you think about a integrated particle driven crowd System inside of x-particles that comes with dynamics?
Is it only possible to render the Foam with the hardware render? Doesnt show up in Standard or Phys...
Edit: Nevermind.... XPDisplay Render Solves my Problem...
Very clear tutorial, however my ocean dissapears after the final cache during playback. When paused it appears again. Anyone else in the same boat?
Can this be used to simulate water splashing from the bow of something like battleship moves through the water?
amazing tutorial, thanks. just cant seem to get the foam to render. std and octane not seeing foam? Any ideas?
I can't render the foam. I've gone back to to see if I missed anything. I'm using the Standard render. Any ideas?
he used hardware render on this one, its not really rendered. if you want to render you need to apply some x-particle material on the foam
I need to do a boat race. Would it be possible to do a thin sheet of water over a large area to get the boat wake and displacement etc?
,,,what do you guys usually do during Caching and viewport rendering? ... I dislike getting distracted by social media..
Aaaah! I remember! I used to draw!!
♥️ Great but, how to edit the foam? because the foam is not white totally and disappear fast!! 🤔
If you want the foam to stay longer or disappear faster, you can adjust the life span of the particles in the foam emitter. As far as color is concerned, the usual way is to give the particles a material depending on the render engine you want to use.
The OpenGL render done in the tutorial was just for demonstration purposes and had no material for the foam particles; it is not a method I would use for a final render.
I used a wine bottle to replace the ball, and the result was surprising...the water splash on the neck of the bottle also deformed with the ocean deformer (this is wrong)
Why does the VDB grid disappear when I do the caching step, and the render animation doesn't come out
Hey there, my foam particles are way to big anyway to shrink it down just like in the tutorial?
Great tut, but anyone else have problems caching the VDBMesher? It looks like it's done it but mesh disappears in playback, and when I turn off the xpOcean modifier the cashing appears to have had no effect.
Yep, same problem here, R19 - if I find a fix, I'll let you know.
Yep, same problem here, .This problem has been bothering me for a long time. Thank you very much for helping me qin.
Same problem here. I hope someone can help us
i figured out that the hardare is not enough to mesh the particles. I was able to solve it by decreasing the segments in width and height of the xp.Ocean
also having the same issue
When i desactivate the xpOcean it disapear. The xpCache is not working with it :( 42:44
The caching 'xpOpenVDBMesher' with the 'xpOcean' as a modify never caches in any combination. I have to leave the modifier on for the mesh unfortuantely.
I wonder wht Kind of computer specs are u on?
The in-depth guide through each object make each tutorial so valuable. Thank you so much for this!
When deforming an OVDMesher is it possible to apply the Vertex Foam Map from the xpOcean? I've selected the 'Foam Map' option in xpOcean but noticed I wasn't able to preview the Vertex Map on the OVDMesher.
Do you have recommendations on how to include foam into the ocean simulation, on top of the xpFoam?
Using Redshift, I was able to drag the Vertex Map it created into the shader, but it kept disappearing as I dragged it into my node. I had to drag it quickly to register it. When clicking the Vertex Map on the OVDMesher object, the settings disappear from the Basic Properties
One way could be to render out the xpOcean foam as a separate pass and comp it onto the mesher in post. However, AFAIK the Beta also has improved features for manipulating vertex maps, so there may be a way that does not rely on comping in post.
@@C4DRS4U interesting ill try this out, thanks for the tip
Does anyone know why foam particles sink to the bottom? They don't float on the surface
Amazing! Can we render x-particles with V-Ray? Thanks
i love that! i wonder if you could do the same with blender ocean modify and mantaflow, Thx
impossible. Blender surface modifier to work needs a constant amount of verts, but with simulation, we have a different amount for each frame.
Not sure if just me, but I expected max to be raised not lowered @13:20
Awesome video, but how do you fill up a glass with liquid? I have spent hours trying to get something that fills in a reasonable amount of time without success.
Hi, check out the Video Manual for the basics of each feature here: insydium.ltd/support-home/video-manuals/x-particles-video-manual/
Moreover, if you're within your Maintenance Period head to your account area and watch the XP Countdown Volume Fill Tutorial. insydium.ltd/support-home/maintenance-training/xp-countdown/
Thanks
34:49 !!!
Awesome stuff! What were the specs of that machine? Whenever I cache xpFluidFX sims, I usually end up with it taking several minutes per frame instead of for the whole animation.
Hi, the specs are in the description.
Thanks
@@INSYDIUMLTD Thanks, I must have missed that they were already in the description. It's good to see that is a mid-tier machine, and not a 32- or 64-core monster.
the first step is always disabling icon in viewport, why even have an icon in the viewport?!
You can turn it off in Preferences if you don't like it.
@@melvinaslekstutis1101 I know, but my question is "why does it exist in the first place" when every tutorial’s first step is to turn it off
Drew Yeaton branding is important
You can disable the icon in the ’Scene object’, like shown in the video.. then (while the ”XP Scene object” is still selected) you go to the ’Object Manager menu’ / ’Edit / and select ’Set as Default’. Now this icon will be disabled every time you add a new Scene object (same with ANY settings you may have changed in the Scene object before ’Set as Default).
This goes for almost every object in Cinema 4D. You can change any setting in objects, change sizes to primitive objects etc.. then ’Set as Default’ and it will be your new default setting.
@@Tennet3D again, not the point but thanks for the info 🙏
I just purchased xparticles but for some reason xpOcean isnt showing up in my generators. Is this feature not yet available?
Hi, this feature is available in the latest update - Build 884
Please could you contact support if you're having technical issues

-Thanks
but how can I have the actual waves of the wavy ocean, especially if I make bigger waves, be simulated. I want to have a boat ride those crazy waves, but the simulation only happens on a flat surface
How to render the ocean in the same hue as the fluid.
Do you have NVIDIA flex4.26?
Foam not working :(

But wouldn't there be a way to just "cut" the edges of the OpenVDBMesher clean so it fits perfectly within the plane without having to do the compositing afterwards?
Yep. I've been using a boole to cut out the bottom and edges. This works great if you are using solid textures like this tute but there is still some post work to do if your water surface is transparent.
