Direction of real wave Splash
Posted in: RealflowHi Everyone. Still new to real flow here, following tutorials from Digital Tutors at the moment.
I’m very curious about realwave object splash. I’m testing out with a simple bird model diving into the sea. There are tons of particles being emitted downward into the sea and not so many emitting upwards into the air…. Is there a way to force it to only go above the sea? Right now I’m using the volume to kill off particles going below, but it seems such a waste of particles : /

helly everybody,
i’m playing around with the PositionToPoints node. so far i’ve rendered a beauty pass and a position pass from maya and connected everything to the node. everything works fine when i’m in nuke’s 3d-view. but when i’m rendering my scene with a scanline renderer it seems that i can’t control the point size any longer. what am i missing?
thanks

Hi,
Here’s my latest film, a 2min20sec (vfx) Sci-Fi short film done for the UK’s Virgin Media Shorts competition.
From conception to delivery it took me 1 full month to complete on my spare time!
Enjoy it and feel free to drop a comment on the following webpage.

So I use nuke and AE/3d rendering programs a lot and I am just about to reinstall my software because i got a new crucial m4. I know in an ideal world you should be running your OS on one drive, your software on another, be reading input from another, and outputting to another.
With these drives though I am not sure what I should have where. Are the benefits of using separate drives minimal when one drive is so much faster? Should I just install everything on the m4 or should I put win7 on the 80gb drive and install all my software on the m4? Currently I plan on installing the OS and all my software on the M4 and using the 80gb ssd to read from and output to the 2tb drive.
256gb crucial m4: read:415mb/s write 260 mb/s
80gb intel x-25m read:250mb/s write : 70mb/s
2tb 64mb cache HD
1tb 32mb cache HD
