Hi,

What problem do you have with the initial states in RealFlow 2013? There was a bug in previous version but it was fixed for RealFlow 2013 ....132.

About the license, try to remove the licenses in the register

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Next Limit Technologies\RealFlow2012\Licenses\RF_2012_GUI

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Next Limit Technologies\RealFlow2013\Licenses\RF_2012_GUI
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Next Limit Technologies\RealFlow2013\Licenses\RF_2013_GUI

Hi Luis,

I'll try removing those keys from the registry.

As for the Initial State in 2013, I've already talked about it a lot here...

http://www.realflow.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=1191

I have version 132.

The short version of it is when ever I use an initial state in 2013, certain parameters seem to get stuck and ignore the setting I put in. I first noticed this with viscosity. Just recently, it seems to be doing it with substeps and particle friction as well. All these problem started when I got 2013, and when I go back to 2012, they disappear.

Look at my last entry in the above thread. See the attached movie files. One shows the shot with a viscosity set at 200 in 2012, the other at 500 in 2013.

Hello Oldcode,

You are right. That is a bug and it is already reported.

Thanks for reporting.

Hey Luis,

Thanks for letting me know that I"m not crazy! :lol:

Any idea on when you'll have a fix? I really liked some of the new features in 2013, but with this bug, it's useless to me.

Hi Luis,

Thanks so much for all your help with this. I've got some more information about this Initial State problem.

I had said earlier I was almost certain the problem was with Real Flow 2013, well it turns out I was wrong. When I discovered the problem, and it seem to only be affecting 2013, I started using 2012, and it worked, but only for a while.

Now I'm getting the initial state problem in both, and it's driving me crazy! Every time I think I've got this figured out, something else comes up. Sometimes the viscosity and substeps works, and sometimes they don't. I've been running some experiments to see what triggers this and can't seem to figure out why the problem happens sometimes, but not other times.

Thought you should know that it's not just in 2013. I'm going to try to reduce the size of my SD file so I can send you scene file, SD, and initial state bin file.

Thanks,
