[TP & Realflow]

#1

Hi,

Could you guys help me with putting RF particles to Thinking Particles?

Can it be done without putting it into particle flow particles?

Thanks,
M.

afaik there is no connector RF->TP.

Damn … I was afraid someone would say that :frowning: Do you know if there is at least some TP blackbox for importing RF particles into TP?

i think you need custom scripted node to get info about particles.
But it’s not hard at all.
RF can export particle data to ASC text file.
So you need node that would parse asc file to get pos and velocity data (you can make integer input in node to point to right file - this way you can read next file only after N frames), create new particles, modify existing and kill ones that disappers from next asc file.

it will be slow but it will work.

Yeah, sounds like an idea, but I’ve been looking for ready, faster solution for the moment. Thank you for your help.

It’s announced for the next version, but it’s not available.

In that case I can’t wait 'til the next version :slight_smile:
