Particle Fluid Surfacing
Just a quick update on the particle fluids development, Raul (farsthary) has finally after much patience and help, finally got his particle fluids rudimentary surfaced.

Hi all
I have finally fully implemented the particle surfacing core , is done! , well , there’s a trick, is only the core and is in lots of ways unoptimized , I’m researching optimization alternatives and also I will need to implement the complete OpenGL shading (normals,faces…) with the correct blending between different particle types.
More details and demoes: Farsthary-Shaping your particle world
Particle physics in Blender never cease to amaze me. Well done! :D
Read the title too quick, ended up with: Particle Fluid Surfing – that’d almost be better than regular surfing…
Great work though!
I sometimes Particle Fluid Surf, and TimC’s right…it really is better…
Btw – great progress, it actually looks like that live particle-simulation we saw at the 3Dstudio max presentation last year, and YOU did that all alone – thats pretty darn impressive.
I really can’t wait to try your particle improvements out Farsthary, it’s been a long wait – but WHOLLY SCHMOLLY worth it!
farsthary is my hero
that guy is very very cool :D
Wow this part is really going great. It would be one of Blender’s greatest addition. Go!
Knowing that he is in a country that is isolated by a blockade, you have to respect the guy…
It makes me feel ashame I can’t contribute more to Blender other than by making the nice pictures :)
Brains knows no blockade, fortunately – not even war – can prohibit our brains from working ;)
hehe, some phenomenal work happening here wow.
This is great news. Always exciting to hear what’s up-n-coming and being integrated into Blender!
I thought I’d share this article from CGW on fluid simulations at the Macro level: http://www.cgw.com/Publications/CGW/2009/Volume-32-Issue-12-Dec-2009-/Viewpoint.aspx
Talks about how smooth particle hydrodynamics solvers, like RealFlow, and how they’re not so great for close up shots and how Fusion CI Studios addresses this challenge.
Enjoy!
