After trying some other tutorials with not a lot success, I looked at this one and this seems very good, even with animation. Well, I will try it, because the voice is cool and you explain it very good. Cool stuff. Of course I do not know, if I have more success here. But one question: what the heck is Mantaflow? Is this an add on or what?
Thanks for the video. What's really hard with fluid sims in blender is that when you apply them to your own project, tweaking the settings is laborious. This is because when you start adding finer meshes and more particles its painfully slow to bake and see the effects the different settings have. Real time use of blender as an editor for fluid sims to see the effects is nigh on impossible. I'm trying to get a fluid to drain away and then as it does so cling to the object honeycomb mesh as it does so. Any ideas on how I can achieve this. Should I set up the fluid sim for the honeycomb and then as the fluid in the model drops below the honeycomb the fluid around the honeycomb is revealed.
it's because of the scale of the project. the liquid simulation will not work in projects of bigger or smaller scales than the default scale. so what I thought of doing is to just take all the content from my project, put it into a new default scene and scale it up so that everything matches the scale and proportions of the water simulations. that's the only way for now, unfortunately.
And I can;t see the mliquid in a mesh form aafter baking it separately but after baking mesh I can;t see the mesh of our liquid but for particles data it works. how to solve it.
@@GraphicsMK I am actually trying to simulate a weld, at first it is liquid metal red hot in color, and after a few seconds it solidifies and darkens to a metallic gray
Nice. It’s quite unfortunate when your computer is weak. Cycles is not an option for me for now. What I need is a video on how we can achieve something reasonable using eevee.
Hi, sorry. I seem to be the only one who is confused I've been following every step of the tutorial but I still fail to make liquid; I've set the domain as modular, I set the source as Inflow, then I tried to bake, yet it doesn't yield anything Can someone please point out what have I missed?
I hope you don't forget to enable liquid option in domain.Also don't forget the mesh option and bake this module separately.Otherwise you can not have liquid mesh.If dont work,follow the steps from scratch.
@@GraphicsMK thanks man, they all work Now: I was trying to make the fluid to follow the negative value forcefield object while also colliding with its surface (for this, I put the gravity field weight to 0.1). So, it's like the fluid envelopes/coats the object. It's still didn't work; it did follow the construct's shape, but it still goes through the body. What did I miss here?
@@BawonoSA173 I can not say that I understand ur 2.scenario exactly.But if ur collision construction is non closed mesh,( like plane) then u should enable the Is Planar option.Otherwise the fluid can not collide with ur effector object.
@@GraphicsMK What I mean is something like we would see when the magnetic putty or a ferrofluid meet a magnet; I'm trying to make the fluid to encase the object I turn on both forcefield & the collision physics on the object, in this case a featureless human model, and the inflow source is placed at the right palm, but the particle just flows through the inside of the body, not crawling on the outside
Bro Is there any way we can just render the animation as a model and use it in other projects? Like we can animate models and use that in other projects, can we do that for this? (I want this in unreal engine 5)
I have never used unreal engine.But you can import your fluid sim into unreal engine.Maybe this video can help you. th-cam.com/video/qbaoRjjlul8/w-d-xo.html
Sir, I have done many of your projects but never one so very difficult to plot as this. Everything seems okay on all workspace except the render one. The domain acts as a reflective mirror prodicing multiple version of hthe object at different angles. This is my ninth (9) time at doing it over and each time I get the same results. I tried it on other versions, same thing! Will now try version 4.0! I am disappointed for sure!
After making all similar settings to you I cant see my liquid in the domain after baking all rtge simulations. How to avoid this problem??? Plz answer me
I was hitting the other “bake” button, I didn’t realize you can use “data bake” button as well! And regarding the details, you did absolutely fantastic!
After Fulfill the vessel with liquid. I have to add rotating blades to the vessel. and applied it, effector. when blades are rotating, the amount of liquid particles is decreases. How to solve this problem?
Can you please share your hardware specs, in particular cpu and gpu. I see that the bake data process is very fast in the video. I'm using a core i7-5960X @4.0GHz and your cpu seems way faster.
My hardware not quality as you think. Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2678 v3 @ 2.50GHz, GTX Geforce 1050 Ti Graphic Card. I speed up the baking section in video editing. Otherwise it is not possible to bake in a short time.
I didn't model this sink.But it is not diffucult to model.There are lots of topic to make tutorial.I don't have enough time.But I will try to make a model tutorial.
Watched a couple of your tutorials and be very impressed. One question about this one. I delayed the start of the water animation for another object to enter the sink first. When i render the animation, the domain is partly showing until the water starts to flow. Any ideas what I have done wrong ?
Im confused. Is Mantaflow the fluid engine in Blender, or are these two different engines completely? If so is Mantaflow recommended over Blenders internal system? Thanks.
@@GraphicsMK Yes, however the page proposes to download Mantaflow. I'm asking if Mantaflow IS the internal fluid engine already integrated inside default blender OR is it a completely separate engine to the one inside blender?
I don't understand exactly but the vortex weight just speed up the draining water.If I didn't have vortex force,the water draining would happen again,but much slower. To speed up the water draining,we can scale up the outflow object.
@@GraphicsMK ok thank you. I am having issue where I am using no sink just water in cube I want to drain. When I add cylinder and set it outflow settings nothing happens when I re bake. Is it suppose to just drain water into bottom of plane into nothing? Cant seem to get water to leave the cube.
@@naytbreeze Maybe it works.Just off the inflow in simulation. Be sure that outflow works or not. If you use a plane or unclosed mesh as outflow object,then enable the is planar option in settings.
Same as with every other Blender / Mantaflow fluid tutorial - the scale is just completely off. Water looks too thick, or the modell too small Otherwise nice video
Until now this was the best tutorial I found about fluid ty so much! But I'm having a pretty damn issue.. It doesn't matter if I rotate my vortex or not (you don't so I didn't initially) my bake data keeps giving me water going up instead of being sucked down - at frame range 90-100, where we put the weight keyframes. How can I fix it for the water to properly go down?
Thank u for ur nice comment. Just delete the vortex force and bake again fluid data.If ur simulation works properly ,and fluid is being sucked by outflow object, it means ur vortex force settings has problem. In this tutorial, I just change vortex strength value.Other parameters are constant.
@@GraphicsMK Ok I'll try without vortex and will report here and like this everyone else with the same problem can fix it right away I'm 2 hours now on this thanks for your quick response and amazing explaining 🙂
So..It stopped exploding my water all around the cube, that's nice. My outflow wasn't working though so I ticked "is planar" inside outflow object baked again and it started working!!
Awesome tutorial! Thank you so much! I just don’t think I’ll be able to see my tendered animation lol it’s taking so long and i got a good MacBook configs… I’ll come back if I get it done hahaha

I did everything exactly how it was shown right here. And guess what? Nothing works. Typical Blender guide, jeez.
It just doesn't show the liquid at all after following the tutorial until 3:28
