Title: FLUIDS SIMULATION WITH CORONA
Post by: GraceVicky on 2017-11-29, 13:36:59: Hi guys!
i am a new user and i didn't find anithing complete in the previous posts about this topic, so i apologize if i ask for something already known..

I need to do an animatic simulation of a fountain's stream and water jet (like in the pictures) and i need to render it with corona.

which is the best compatible software to simulate fluids movement?

i tried to use phoenix and i know about the limitation concerning foam and splashes...
Do you thing other softwares, like realflow , could be a better solution?
What about the 2018 3ds max that includes the fluids simulation?

Thanks in advance!

i will try it for sure... and do you know if corona can render splashes and foam with max 2018?

The liquid can be easily rendered with corona materials, the foam I do not know.

Now I'm trying it with Lucid Physics
I see it as the cheaper (and maybe simpeler, havent tried the other programs) solution for real life settings. So no flying water or so.

Haven't got something to show jet, but I will when I have.

And so far it renders with corona

Maybe we should ask Ondra to implement corona surface?
Lucid is great but not stable for me.

Hi wilbertvandenbroek, how did you manage to render the liquids with corona, If i hit render it just hangs. thx
