How to use RFRK in Lightwave

Post by Danakinobi2 » Fri Sep 05, 2014 12:15 am

Hello... I'm really new to Realflow2014 and the RF render kit with Lightwave 11.6.3 64 bit win7 64bit.

I've been trying to find some tutorials on this and maybe some stuff on youtube.

I'm not sure how this works or how to use Hybrido in it. Do I still have to make the initial simulation in Realflow before importing back to Lightwave?

I saw a video on youtube that shows the renderkit in action, sort of... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYYOybktf1g

I wasn't sure how they created the ocean and waves...

Do they do they create a hybrido container in Lightwave or is this done in realflow first, and then imported into Lightwave.

Sorry for the silly questions. But I'm very new to this.

Regards,
Dan

Hi,

Renderkit has a very similar workflow to work with it for all 3d platforms. You can find a further info in this link below

We also had a few basic intro videos for LW last year made by the developer, but I have to check if they're still available.

Thanks for the input... Please let me know if you run into those videos... That would really help me out.

Just talked to the developer and it seems as if he still has a copy of them, but he's got to search his HDDs as well. I'll let you know if he succeeds.
