Since the Motion Blur option is set to Force off, you can safely skip this step. Patterns This means that the lower this option is, the more foam will be born and also the more places in the simulator would allo… Note that bubbles inside the liquid volume are carried by the velocity of the liquid, and also affected by this parameter. Let's see how we can utilize the cache files of the ship simulation to add another ship into the shot. Phoenix FD is the all-in-one fluid dynamics plugin for Maya. 10 means that the largest bubbles are 11 times larger than Size. 34:32 . 2 responses. UI Path: ||Select Liquid Simulator | LiquidSim object|| > Modify panel > Foam rollout. Overview This is an Advanced Level tutorial. [CDATA[ Here's how a rendered image looks so far. By default, the birth volume geometry is not automatically converted to a non-solid and it will behave as a rigid body in your simulation. It is crucial that you are mindful of the speed of your ship as it travels through the liquid. //]]>. Hide the original ship and the original liquid simulator (named ship_geo_001 and PhoenixFDLiquid001). The Simulation parameters should all be set up now. High speed: Animation from 0 to 500 in Y, Your browser does not support the HTML5 video element The object in this scene is a replica of a typical Navy warship. This parameter controls the distance between the copies. Place it below the level of the water. jQuery('#tocHorizontal').hide('fast'); window.onscroll = function() { This will automatically set up the link between the foam particle group, the shader, and the liquid simulator. Time to get active with this 3D Tip looking at how to use Active Bodies in the new Beta of Phoenix FD 4. If you hit Render, Phoenix FD will prompt you with a message stating that the Rendering and Material options of the first simulator (PhoenixFDLiquid001) will be used when merging your containers. Phoenix FD integrates seamlessly into Maya and is optimized to render with V-Ray. Open the Foam rollout and select the Enable checkbox. With emitter at the back of the ship. You can force this process by increasing the Rising Speed. For a jetboat, the Outgoing Velocity would be much higher than it is for a massive ship like the one in this example. This will cause Foam particles to be generated when the Splash particles collide with the liquid surface. Learn to make Water with Phoenix FD presets. 3dsmax PhoenixFD tyflow Splash & Foam Redshift Render Tutorial Birth Note: The Liquid → Splash → Liquid example above is correct only in case the Affect Liquid parameter is greater than 0. High Splash Amount means that more splash particles will be generated by a single liquid particle → Low Splash Amount means fewer Splash particles. 0 means that all bubbles are always at least as big as Size. Affects only the foam bubbles above the liquid surface - those inside the volume will not burst until they reach the surface. The provided scene file contains a V-Ray Infinite Plane already prepared for you. Feel free to also copy any additional geometry that was linked to ship_geo_001, such as the propellers. 0 means that all bubbles are never larger than Size. Autodesk and Maya are registered trademarks or trademarks of Autodesk, Inc., and/or its subsidiaries and/or affiliates in the USA and/or other countries. So, select PHXFoam001 and check the particle systems list. Make sure to either hide the measurement box or add it to the Phoenix FD Simulator →. Emitting With Polygon ID specified and high discharge. 1 means that the largest bubbles are two times larger than Size. In this case, the Volume Fadeout can be used to expand an area around the object where Foam/Splash births are possible. Proceed by creating a Phoenix FD Liquid Source and specifying the box_liquid_source geometry as the emitter. Add the corresponding particle group of PhoenixFDLiquid002 which, by default, should be named PG [Splashes] of system [PhoenixFDLiquid002]. If you'd like to get a preview of the meshed liquid surface, head over to the Preview tab of the simulator and enable Show Mesh. Specify the Polygon ID for emission to be 2 at the bottom of the Phoenix FD Liquid Source parameters panel. Phoenix FD is used in multiple television series such as Game of Thrones and The Flash, and is specifically designed for fast-paced production. The Wind Speed parameter will affect the height of the waves. Those 2 parameters control the Phoenix FD algorithm responsible for generating foam patterns over the liquid surface. } The real-world size of the Simulator in units is important for the simulation dynamics. Splash Threshold 10. The Ocean → Ocean Level parameter needs to be adjusted as well. Make sure to either hide the measurement box or add it to the Phoenix FD Simulator → Scene Interaction rollout → Exclude List so the liquid is not affected by it. The movement of the simulator in your scene will then affect the liquid inside the grid. That is all. Before we begin, here's an optimization tip that will save you a lot of R&D time when working with setups similar to the one described here. Overview Then, select only the face pointing in the -Y direction and set its ID to 2. Because the simulation box in this example is quite short (small in the Z axis), it's possible many of the splash particles generated at the front of the ship will rise high enough to leave the bounds of the liquid simulator and be deleted. .rwui_id_dbf4bc10-6ba9-49eb-8bd7-3ac48b2a5695 {color: #666666 !important; background: rgb(237,237,237); border: 1px solid rgb(201,201,201);}.rwui_id_dbf4bc10-6ba9-49eb-8bd7-3ac48b2a5695:hover {border: 1px solid rgb(166,166,166); background: rgb(219,219,219);}.rwui_id_dbf4bc10-6ba9-49eb-8bd7-3ac48b2a5695 .rwui_icon {color: #666666 !important;} Download Example File. Try to find some information regarding the real world size of your model. The Approximate+Shadows options allows the for the foam to drop shadows over solid geometry in the scene. However, if you eventually decide to render the Foam with Motion Blur, experiment with this option to find the best result for your scene. (If using PhoenixFD 4 or later, please set this value to 0.35). if (newScrollPosition > lastScrollPosition) { It is seamlessly integrated into Autodesk 3ds Max and Maya and is optimized to render with V-Ray. Apple, Mac, Mac OS X, OS X and macOS are trademarks of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries. //]]>. Notice the water level. If the difference in velocity between two neighbor voxels is higher that this threshold, foam particles should be born. The Particle Tuner in the scene is used to increase and randomize the viscosity of the lava over time. Note that this is not the time since the particle exited the grid, but the time since the particle was born. Set the Ocean level such that the liquid particles barely cover the measurement box. 0 likes. In this example, it's translated to -50m in Z. 1 means that the smallest bubbles are two times smaller than Size. Because there are many situations where an automated solution might fail (such as the infinite ocean surface oscillating up and down until it settles which will cause the horizon to bounce), it is left to you to match the Ocean Level to its best value. The Frame Rate in this example is set to NTSC 30 frames per second. 50 means 50% of the height/vertical size of the Phoenix FD Simulator. × Depending on your machine and the resolution of your sim, this option could provide a decent speed boost. You may have to ... Random pixels in my Foam/Splash by vanja_kapetanovic. The following video provides examples to show the differences when Variation Small is set to 0, 1, and 50. Started by vanja_kapetanovic, 11-11-2020, 05:41 PM. The workflow for setting up the shot, and the Phoenix FD settings involved in the simulation are explained in detail. This is the maximal speed of ascent of the average-sized bubbles. For the Phoenix FD Particle Shader used for the Foam, the following settings are used: The Mode is set to Bubbles, with a Light Cache Speedup of 0.99. Lighting & Rendering This page provides a tutorial on creating a Ship in the Ocean simulation with Phoenix FD in 3ds Max. In this case, the, can be used to expand an area around the object where Foam/Splash births are possible. The following video provides examples to show the differences of Birth Threshold values of 50, 100, and 200. Phoenix FD is a fluid dynamics simulator capable of creating a wide range of effects including fire, smoke, flames, liquids, explosions, ocean waves, splashes, spray, mist and more. You may also want to experiment with the Fog Bias. Set the Splash Air Drag to 5. Depth | fohdepth – When a splash particle hits the liquid surface and produces foam, this parameter specifies how far in front of the splash particle the new foam particles will be born. The foam may be born from the liquid, splash droplets, a Source, or a script. Units Setup Microsoft, Windows are either registered trademarks or trademarks of Microsoft Corporation in the United States and/or other countries. Sticky Foam | fsticky – Controls the ability of the bubbles to stick to a geometry. If you're making a jetboat simulation, you may also try to give it a slight rotation so it points upwards. You should now have 2 ships in a single ocean, with all the secondary effects rendered as well. Phoenix FD 3 for Maya empowers VFX artists to simulate fire, smoke, explosions, liquids, foam and splashes, while offering exceptional flexibility and speed. Online licensing option now available. Go to Frame 0 so the ship is centered at the origin. Phoenix FD Tutorial for Liquid Basic Setup. Preview and render interactively in the viewport. Recall that the Draft (the sink level) is 9.4 meters. It would look strange if the ship was speeding up at the start and slowing down at the end of the animation, which is the default behavior of the. The default option of Bubbles is better suited for close up shots. The Phoenix FD solver is not affected by how you choose to view the Display Unit Scale - it is just a matter of convenience. Increase the resolution of the grid to ~ 100 000 000 voxels by reducing the Grid → Cell Size parameter to 0.14. Create a Box around your object with the Width / Length / Height set up as a reference. Please don't delete the measurement box for the time being - you are going to need it when setting the Phoenix FD Liquid Simulator Initial Fill Up level. Enable Displacement and click the No Map button next to the Map parameter. Invisible is enabled so the sun does not produce noisy specular highlights over the ocean's surface. Go to Customize → Units Setup and set Display Unit Scale to Metric Meters. Setting Size Distribution to 0 means that all sizes will be equally distributed. Select the box_liquid_source, add an Edit Poly modifier, go to Face selection mode and set the ID for all faces to 1. Bigger bubbles burst quicker than smaller ones, and bubbles inside foam live longer. Simulation with Final settings at 100M Cells. High Splash Amount means that the size of the Splash particles will be smaller → Low Splash Amount means larger Splash particles. Instructions will be sent after purchase. We take care of that in the next step. You can convert the geometry to a non-solid from its. Create the animation. Mist particles are a great way to add additional detail into the simulation but since the camera is rather far from the ship and they won't contribute much to the final shot, it would be a waste of time and resources to simulate them. The Motion Blur Step is set to 1. Rising Speed | frise – Affects only the foam particles which are inside the liquid volume. The foam simulation follows several simple rules: underwater bubbles rise up, bubbles in the air fall down, bubbles can stick to each other and can be resistant to external pressure. This may take a while depending on the speed of your machine. window.onscroll = function() { The scale of the option is in units/sec. Featured by Chaos Group, Autodesk, Cebas, CGPress, IAMAG, CGRecord… FREE Project files are included with every tutorial “RedefineFX is doing an absolutely outstanding job teaching all aspects of Phoenix FD” – Svetlin Nikolov, Lead Phoenix FD Developer, Chaos Group. Because there is no secondary illumination present, the yellow color coming from the sun is overwhelming the image. Increase the Splash Amount parameter to 20. The Phoenix FD solver is not affected by how you choose to view the Display Unit Scale - it is just a matter of convenience. Simulate fire, smoke, liquids, ocean waves, splashes, spray, mist and more. jQuery('#tocVertical').hide('fast'); If your model doesn't fit into the specified measures, use the Scale tool to uniformly scale it down until it is of the correct size. Because there is a large number of splash particles born at the ship's front, having no Motion Blur may cause the rendered animation to look unnatural. The instructions on this page guide you through the process of creating a simulation of a ship sailing through the ocean using Phoenix FD and 3ds Max. Foam Size works in conjunction with the B2B Interaction (B2B stands for Bubble to Bubble). Falling Speed | ffall – Affects only the foam particles which are outside of the liquid volume. This will slightly blur the specular highlights produced by the sources of illumination in your scene. .rwui_id_e387a3ab-5b40-4a1e-a4c1-f9eb476f7e8b {color: #666666 !important; background: rgb(237,237,237); border: 1px solid rgb(201,201,201);}.rwui_id_e387a3ab-5b40-4a1e-a4c1-f9eb476f7e8b:hover {border: 1px solid rgb(166,166,166); background: rgb(219,219,219);}.rwui_id_e387a3ab-5b40-4a1e-a4c1-f9eb476f7e8b .rwui_icon {color: #666666 !important;} Download Project Files. Choose Yes when asked if you'd like a Phoenix FD Particle Shader generated for the splash particles. Surface Lock | fsrflock – Affects the bubbles placed on the liquid surface. div.rbtoc1610235849685 li {margin-left: 0px;padding-left: 0px;} At the moment, the Liquid Source is pushing liquid in all directions. The Phoenix FD Liquid Source used in the simulation emits liquid with a Viscosity value set to 1.0. The Draft is measured from the lowest point of the ship so if you were to position the box such that its bottom face is aligned with the bottom of the ship, its top face will give you the Draft. However, this trick is a huge time saver so consider incorporating it into your workflow. B2B 0 + Foam Size 0.06 + Pattern Radius 1.2, Your browser does not support the HTML5 video element Scale is crucial for the behavior of any simulation. For instance, a large bubble size coupled with high B2B Interaction will cause the particles to start colliding and pushing each-other - this can be very useful for simulating beer or bathtub foam. Open the Splash/Mist rollout and select the Enable checkbox. If you find that the speed of your vessel is too high and the waves generated at the front are too big, you can easily reduce the speed by setting the Translate Y values to a lower number. Noise textures are used for the Outgoing Velocity, Viscosity and RGB so that the flow has some variation. Simulation with Final settings at 5M Cells, Your browser does not support the HTML5 video element Foam Amount | fbirth– Specifies the number of particles to be born when a given cell meets the birth condition, in thousands per second. Max Outside Age | foutlife – If a particle is outside the grid, and its age (in seconds) exceeds this parameter, the particle will be killed instantly. The workflow for setting up the shot, and the Phoenix FD settings involved in the simulation are explained in detail. Higher values result in better preservation of the foam's volume. } }); Many workflow suggestions and example videos of commonly used simulation parameters are included as well. The scale of the option is in units/sec. Consider setting the Read Cache for Preview option to Disable During Sim. When rendering at a lower resolution, a higher Ocean Subdivs value may be necessary. What this means is that you can have a very long trail of Foam particles generated by a relatively small simulator. Go to Customize → Units Setup and set Display Unit Scale to Metric Meters. div.rbtoc1610235849685 ul {list-style: disc;margin-left: 0px;} From the Coordinates tab of the PhoenixFDOceanTex, you may change the Angle Z to a value of your choice. Choose Yes when asked if you'd like a Phoenix FD Particle Shader generated for the foam particles. Rendering } Choose your flexible licensing option. For more information, see the Variation Small example below. The provided scene file contains a V-Ray Sun & Sky setup. The easiest way to emulate this effect is to simply use a box as a source geometry for a Phoenix FD Liquid Source - thus adding additional liquid and velocity into the simulation. As the focus of this tutorial is a large-scale ship simulation, setting the units to Meters seems like a reasonable choice. Phoenix FD is an all-in-one solution for fluid dynamics. To start viewing messages, select the forum that you want to visit from the selection below. The following video provides examples to show the differences of Pattern Strength values of 0, 0.5, and 1.0. The shadows cast from the V-Ray Sun are very dark. Phoenix FD; Phoenix FD :: Issues; If this is your first visit, be sure to check out the FAQ by clicking the link above. This way the simulation will completely ignore it. So Y amount of splash particles is converted back into X amount of liquid. The Ocean Level, on the other hand, is a rendering setting which you can freely edit at any point. Pattern Radius 6, Pattern Strength 1.0, Half-Life 10Note how the particles are repelled unnaturally during the formation of patterns. Recall that we used the Dynamics → Initial Fill Up parameter to set the initial liquid level for the simulator. Since Foam is born by the Splash particles, this would allow the foam trail to become wider. This option requires that the B2B interaction is greater than zero. Foam Amount | fbirth – Specifies the number of particles to be born when a given cell meets the birth condition, in thousands per second. When this option is enabled, the Half Life of each bubble is modified taking into account its size and its surroundings. Variation Small | fshrink – Specifies how much smaller the bubbles can be, relative to the Size parameter. This parameter can be edited depending on the type of simulation. To resolve a problem like this, a weaker Pattern Strength or a lower Pattern Radius could be the remedy. This means that the lower this option is, the more foam will be born and also the more places in the Simulator would allow foam to be born. We also take a look at an advanced setup allowing you to simulate multiple vessels in separate Phoenix FD Simulators and merge them into a single infinite ocean at render time. Open the Splash/Mist rollout and set the Foam Amount to 2. The time required for the particles to reduce to half of their initial count, in seconds. Example: B2B Interaction For the Min. Phoenix FD has an internal algorithm capable of merging multiple containers into a single infinite ocean. Then, looking at the mesh preview, increase or decrease the Ocean Level in small increments until the generated ocean is leveled with the surface generated by the simulator. The V-Ray Sun is the Ground Albedo is set to RGB: [ 51, 51, 51]. We will use a V-Ray Material to recreate the appearance of an ocean. A good approach would be to instead work at a higher resolution while only simulating one side of the Phoenix FD Container. This is an immense performance boost that you should aim to take advantage of whenever possible. BASIC LIQUIDS. Splash Amount 20, Your browser does not support the HTML5 video element The Falling Speed is also affected by the size of the individual bubbles. The Simulator box should now follow the animation of the ship. As the focus of this tutorial is a large-scale ship simulation, setting the units to Meters seems like a reasonable choice. [CDATA[ This includes foam born according to the conditions set by the Foam Amount and Birth Threshold parameters of the Foam, as well as the Foam on Hit parameters of the Splash. Determine the length of your simulation. Last Post. Increase the Liquid-Like to 1. Rate this: Share this: ... Hybrido Lighthouse Liquid Liquid Simulation Maxwell Maxwell Render Mental Ray Ocean Ocean Simulation Particles Phoenix FD Phoenix FD Foam Phoenix FD Liquid Phoenix FD Splash Phoenix FD Tutorial Phoenix FD Tutorials Phoenix FD Water Phoenix FD Waves Polygons Realflow RealFlow 5 Realflow Fluid Realflow Foam … Let's start by setting up the options in the Rendering rollout of the Phoenix FD Simulator. This will reduce in half the number of simulated cells and the time it takes for the simulation to complete. }); You can also use the Distribution parameter to control the balance between the number of small and large bubbles. Your browser does not support the HTML5 video element Go to Frame 0 and use the Select and Link button and the top left side of the 3ds Max UI to link the liquid simulator to the ship geometry. Phoenix FD is licensed with a dongle and will be added to your V-Ray dongle. Set the Point Radius to 0.5. In this example, we generate the Foam from the Splash particles using the Foam on Hit parameter in the Splash/Mist rollout. If the size of the Simulator in the scene cannot be changed, you can cheat the solver into working as if the scale is larger or smaller by changing the Scene Scale option in the Grid rollout. Increasing this value will force the particles to try and stick to each other, thus forming tendrils when ballistic. Phoenix FD - Ship Tutorial by ChaosGroupTV. jQuery('#tocHorizontal').hide('fast'); If possible, make sure that the bounds of the Phoenix FD Simulators do NOT overlap. This should produce the type of shading you'd expect in a large body of water containing all sorts of particulates that interfere with the light rays. In real life, the liquid at the back of the ship is pushed backward by the propellers. X amount of liquid produces Y amount of splash particles. You could try making an entire Naval Convoy this way. The scale of the option is in units/sec. It controls the influence of the liquid movement over the surface bubbles. The particle Age channel must be exported in order for these options to take effect (from the Source or from the Output panel, depending on the way the foam is generated). .rwui_id_635d1bfb-e823-4bbb-ac91-cabae81be21e {color: #666666 !important; background: rgb(237,237,237); border: 1px solid rgb(201,201,201);}.rwui_id_635d1bfb-e823-4bbb-ac91-cabae81be21e:hover {border: 1px solid rgb(166,166,166); background: rgb(219,219,219);}.rwui_id_635d1bfb-e823-4bbb-ac91-cabae81be21e .rwui_icon {color: #666666 !important;} Download Example File, Page Contents When you create your Simulator, you must check the Grid rollout where the real-world extents of the Simulator are shown. You may want to decrease the Light Cache Speedup in case you notice flickering in the rendered animation. If set to 0, Liquid particles are NOT killed when generating Splash particles, and Splash particles are NOT converted into liquid when they enter the body of water and die. Birth Threshold | fbthres – Foam is born where the liquid movement is turbulent. Therefore, 15.56 meters / 1 second is 15.56 meters / 30 frames = ~ 0.5 meters per frame. This parameter controls the behavior of splash particles in the air. Variation Large | fsizevar – Specifies how much larger the bubbles can be, relative to the Size parameter. This is done so the foam doesn't appear too bright which will kill the detail - you are free to edit this value based on the requirements of your shot. When prompted with the Clone Options dialog, select Copy and hit OK - the copy should now appear below the ship geometry and should be named PhoenixFDLiquid002 (if you kept the original naming). As the focus of this tutorial is a large-scale ship simulation, setting the units to Meters seems like a reasonable choice. Open the Curve Editor and set the tangents for the animation to Linear. It can dramatically change the result. This is how Phoenix FD handles secondary effects - the Liquid particles are used to generate the surface while secondary effects like Foam, Mist, Splash, and Drag are separated in their own particle group(PG) nodes. In other words, the time taken for calculation is longer when the value is higher. Phoenix Foam.JPG (381.01 kB, 3131x1698 - viewed 43 times.) Use the Select and Link tool at the top left of the 3ds Max UI to link the new simulator to the new ship - you will know the operation was successful if the copy of the simulator (PhoenixFDLiquid002) now appears under ship_geo_002 in the Scene Explorer. jQuery('#tocHorizontal').show('fast'); Built for 3D artists who want to create dynamic FX using quick presets, fast setup and intuitive controls. The Scattering parameter should be set to Approximate&Shadows. Here's why this is needed: the Fog Color parameter of the V-Ray material won't affect the Phoenix FD Particle Shaders (with a Liquid Simulator connected) unless the 'volume' of the liquid is capped. Furthermore, flickering in the particles may occur when rendering out a sequence. The Depth parameter controls how far below the surface the Foam particles are born. Keep in mind that increasing the Ocean Subdivs will cause rendering to consume more RAM so only do this in small increments. In this example, the value is set to 0.9. Instead, Phoenix FD provides a feature called Inertial Forces that allows you to confine the simulation to a small portion of the path of a moving piece of geometry. $("#tocHorizontal a").click(function(event) { The Ocean Mesh mode generates a liquid surface from the boundaries of the Phoenix FD Simulator box. This is done with the intention of preserving the liquid volume. Started by Avesani, 12-11 … You can find the VRay Sky texture in the Hypershade. All other brand names, product names, or trademarks belong to their respective holders. For more information, see the Falling Speed example below. SMOKE, FIRE & EXPLOSIONS Create any type of fire and smoke effects with Phoenix FD's powerful, adaptive-grid dynamics engine. By default, the birth volume geometry is not automatically converted to a non-solid and it will behave as a rigid body in your simulation. Let the simulation run for a couple hundred frames. It is a purely artistic decision so feel free to tweak the Z Angle as you see fit. /*]]>*/ Keep in mind that increasing the Ocean Subdivs will cause rendering to consume more RAM so only do this in small increments. However, keep in mind that you may want to increase it if the vessel you're using is moving faster. The following video provides examples to show the differences when Rising Speed is set to 0, 20, and 100. As a side note - there is nothing stopping you from using entirely different simulations instead of copying the simulator and pointing it to the existing cache files. There is no special setup required. B2B Interaction | fcycles – Controls the internal interaction between bubbles (bubble-to-bubble interaction). If you hit render now, you will notice that the entire scene is too warm. Set the Foam Amount to 0. In this example, the Length of the ship should be 155 meters, its Beam (Width) 20 meters, and it should 'sink' (Draft) 9.2 meters into the water. You may now run the simulation for a couple of frames to make sure everything is working as expected. You can convert the geometry to a non-solid from its PhoenixFD properties. Vary | hlvary – In nature, not all the bubbles have the same half life. Note that this is not the time since the particle exited the grid, but the time since the particle was born. You can simply unhide it and you'll be good to go.
