RealFlow Official Forum

ok so this isn't quite WIP, more of a finished product, couldn't find a finished work section for some reason

wouldn't you like to have this for breakfast?

Looks good really man! This isn't about the simulation, but the plate geo could be subdivided once to make it look less polygonal. The actual honey looks great though, so stable!

I'm curious how it works when you go over the maximum recommended substeps in realflow. It didnt look like a low framerate, so I'm assuming you got an error when you set it to min 750 and max 1000. Does it still work and improve stability?

You should ignore the messages Rf gives you about substeps being too high. Those are just Rf playing it safe. Use the substep values which work best for you. You should especially ignore those messages when simming viscous fluids as you often need high than Rf recommends.

Oh wow... all this time I could have had more stable viscous simulations... thanks so much for the heads up!

The odd thing about that one is, despite having extremely high substeps, the higher viscosity I was going (400+), it would "hold" up the fluid at the emitter, but I haven't played around yet too much with increasing speed or other attributes to solve that one.
As far as the plate, that was smoothed out in maya, not enough apparently, but seeing as I am having issues with RF not clipping right, I chose to stay with that plate.

EDIT: Ok, I just realized this forum is labled RealFlow Learning Edition...I have a license...my mistake, sorry guys =(
