![]() So the Houdini engine does one very simple thing. It's developed by MAXON from of course in collaboration with Side Effects. The only one that's developed by the host development team MAXON in this case is The Houdini engine plugin for Cinema 4D. I think there are versions for other applications. Now can you imagine that? One of the most powerful V-effects software, they decided to allow their own program to become a plugin for other applications so they created a series of libraries the API and it allows third parties like MAXON, which in this case we're the first party, but from a Houdini point of view we are a third party, to create plugins so that we can load Houdini files inside Cinema 4D. We're going to strip away the interface, wrap it all in a little box and allow other applications to use Houdini as a plugin. Side Effects has this fantastic V-effects program called Houdini and it's and it's full version costs like $7,000, but worth every single penny and they said okay, let's do something. Up the viscosity solver and is sufficient accuracy for most simulations.- Let's begin with the following question, What is a Houdini Engine? And in order to explain that, we have to take a step back and imagine in today's market it's very aggressive competitive products, employee poaching and all sorts of aggressive movements from competing companies and a couple of companies in the market, aside from Side effects and MAXON, decided that there could be another way. Object can be a good way to preview viscosityĬhoosing Float 32-bit for the precision on the Viscosity tab will speed Turning off Reseeding should alleviate this problem. Particles newly introduced by the reseeding process can be apparent. When surfacing very slow moving viscous particles, occasionally Metaballs might provide better results than Average Positionįor surfacing goopy, viscous fluids with the Particle Fluid Surface ![]() Viscous sim might need more substeps than the 1 that the FLIP Solver Will be more accurate with smaller substeps. While the viscosity solver should always be stable, it The FLIP Solver computes the number of substeps to calculate based Scale to about 1.4 should alleviate this problem. Object to >= sqrt(3) or decreasing the Grid Increasing the Particle Radius Scale on the FLIP Particles might freeze in air if they are too small to be resolved However, if your sim is only slightly viscous, individual flying Particles method to No Detection turns off this behavior and Viscous liquids it can lead to particles creeping off the surfaceĮven with very high viscosity. This works well for fluid with no viscosity, but for The FLIP Solver will detect particles that are leaving the surfaceĪnd are too small to be resolved on the grid and treat themīallistically. If Under-Resolved Particles is set to Treat as Ballistic, Input to the FLIP Solver, you can arbitrarily edit the viscosity If you override the Viscosity field through the Volume Velocity The default attribute name is viscosity but you can change it as well scaling the value and controlling how the value of the attribute affects existing viscosity values using the other parameters on the Viscosity sub-tab. In the FLIP Solver node parameters, click the Volume Motion ▸ Viscosity sub-tab, then turn on Enable Viscosity and Viscosity by attribute. You can use a per-particle viscosity attribute to control a varying viscosity field. This tool does the above steps on the selected particle fluid object automatically, and sets the initial value of the Viscosity parameter of the object based on the object’s scale. Use the Make Viscous tool on the Particle Fluids shelf tab. Then in the FLIP object parameters, click the Physical tab and set the Viscosity. In the FLIP Solver node parameters, click the Volume Motion ▸ Viscosity sub-tab, then turn on Enable Viscosity. Set the uniform viscosity of a FLIP fluid object At the default scale, you will need values around 1000 for a thick fluid, and around 10000 for a doughy fluid. The value of the Viscosity parameter depends on the scale of the particles.
