replicating Igor Zanic's bifrost Bifrost 2017 - RND 01 video

#1

I’m trying for the life of me to get the moving domain setup that he shows in this video working, and I haven’t had much luck.

I was curious if anyone else had given this a go? I’ve tried it several times, and I can’t get anything close to what he is showing.

At the end of the video, there is a section showing a boat traveling over large distances by using a moving domain. I have set this up exactly like I think he has it, but my fluid comes out of the front moving emitter and spills out into the container, his fluid remains perfectly still on emission and I can’t figure out how he did it…

here’s a link for the video

Hi Scott,

You could ask me :slight_smile:

There is one thing that you need to do, for front emiter that emit everyframe, and container you need to disable inherit velocity, so to do that:

  • for container and emition geo, create emptyColorSet
  • rename to bifrostVelocity
  • Apply black color to that bifrostVelocity color set.

Run simulation

Hope this help.
Igor

oh man, I got sidetracked on some other projects for a while, and completely forgot I even posted this. Thanks so much for the tips, I’ll give it a shot and report back!

I am creating bifrost moving simulation.
but my particles are flowing out from the container. dont know where i am doing wrong.

i am also attach jpeg to know my bifrost emitter and container setup.

Many Thanks

I’m having the same problem as pushkardeshpandey: my water goes flying out of the container even though I have set it to be a collider. This seems to happen when I animate everything moving forward.
I made a new empty color set for my container and emitter cubes, named it bifrostVelocity and set the value and intensity to 0.

I haven’t added the smaller, continuous emitter at the front yet.

What am I missing?

Thanks in advance, this is really hard for me.
