 Next Limit release RealFlow 2 Posted by: Schloerby
Source: Next Limit
Date: Fri Oct 11 2002
RealFlow is a physics-based particle system built upon Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technology, which make use of real fluid equations in a flexible way to accurately simulate a wide range of fluids like liquids, gases and viscous matter (slime, goo, lava...).
New and improved features in version 2 comprise:
� Totally new user interface: multiple resizable viewports, axis handler, parameters lists.
� Improved fluid engine, increased perfomance and stability.
� New viscosity per particle and real mass. Turbulence, mixture of fluids, and other complex effects are more realistic.
� Improved memory management allows to use more particles.
� Improved multithreading allowing 2 to 32 CPU in the same machine.
� New rigid body engine, allows object-object collision and fluid-object interaction. The fluid can displace the objects. Riots, avalanchas, ice cubes in a glass, are now possible.
� Time slider, play/stop buttons to preview the fluid. The simulation can resume from a previous point.
� Mini script for command execution
� Fluid resolution, allows changes in the number of particles while using the same fluid.
� Improved graph window for parameter animation (envelopes). More parameters can be animated.
� Improved mesh generation. Re-meshing feature added.
� New project management
� Revised functionallity of emitters and daemons.
