Hey Viks,

See this … i am trying to emit smoke at the end of the sequence. is it possible with the same container with 1 more emitter or i have to add separate container for the smoke? :rolleyes:

I will use different container for smoke & candle flame. As both varies a lot in attributes settings & in nature too. So It will be quite difficult to get everything in one container.

You can try the wispy smoke setup of what I have shared here:

Hope it helps,
Thanks,

I am trying to mimic the patterns of what we see here. So Here’s my first attempt :
Just Plain fluids no particles yet.

Please excuse my modelling & texturing skills, I just made it real quick to throw some stuff in there :stuck_out_tongue: , or else comments & critiques are welcome :slight_smile:

#53

the waterfall layers they comped in Avatar in Nuke looked like fluids to me, or real ones… but you’re definitely getting there :slight_smile:

#54

A little hi res version with a muddy look shading.

Density Noise & all other new feature added in maya 2012 really makes maya stand out from other fluid solver.

#55

looks great, now lets see the crashing bits at bottom with large misty spray :wink:

so are you doing this with nparticles and fluids or just fluids?

#56

Your waterfall looks really nice !
I didn’t have time to look 2012 new features but i think will have a try on monday :slight_smile:

#57

@Howard : at the moment they are just fluids, haven’t integrated nparticle’s yet.
@Drweeny : Thanks. I am still not very satisfied with the sim. May be particle emission might do a better job.

#59

Amazing work guys… both viki and rakesh… really really nice stuff.

@rakyhr : I just saw your video. totally loving it. wish I had seen tht earlier so I would have done something like this little earlier. Anyway I am glad to share & learn here.

For interested folks who want to know the process of how I setup my the base foundation. You can have a look at the attached test scene file here, Hope it helps to give you guys a good kick start . I am pretty loaded with projects here at work so I have been quite sluggish with email responses & also little occupied to continue my development on waterfall here, But I would love to see more form you guys…please surprise me with your results.
Thanks,
-Vik
