YES!! Wonderful !
An explosion example:
https://youtu.be/0tTaAqfGccw
It would be nice if I could import fire/smoke/cloud VDBs from Houdini. It's certainly an easier workflow using the VDBs directly then meshing and exporting/importing obj files.
OK. That is not difficult to implement.
I have planned some updates. One of them will be oriented to extend the VDB files usage.
Here is the same explosion, but double-resolution simulation. Two methods of solution compared.
Do you have approximate release date? Will it be for next year?
In fact, it's ready to be released. It should be live in the store very soon!
uhhh this that an error...?
Fludidos II is released and costs $119.95 $83.97
Is there some additional discount for those who owned the previous version? I look forward to the sweat drop effects, but not sure whether I can get the same effect as the demo. Is the sweat drop effect included in the tutorial/recipe?
I just saw that it's already launched, I was camping here to see that. There should be a discount.
Same. Paying $83 USD from someone who bought the previous version (plus all addons, except for the blender/mixer addon set) doesn't seem right IMO.
It would be nice with the upgrade price for owners of the previous version, but it does not happen at the moment.
I am not French, but c'est la vie
Does the above is included with FLUIDOS II as a recipe?
Wow, really pricey! I like it and have wislisted it; but I have already invested in the original when it came out not too long ago as well as most of the preset packs. Without a substantially reduced upgrade price I can't afford to get this one
I understand your concerns. I foresaw them.
Yes, I know is pricey compared to the original Fluidos. But I can't afford to sell a lower price. It takes me 9 months of hard work to create Fluidos II plus 2 months of testing by the DAZ team.
On the other hand:
About the sweat drops, in brief, I will show how I did it (in fact, Fluidos v1.3 can also do it, but not as good).
And the honey, I can create a freebie so you can see the settings (this way, I can share the honey spoon also)
Not even with a coupon/code? Damn, It seems like I'll won't buy it. Way too expensive, and many here also agree.
FYI: Today PC+ Members Only--Get 20% OFF your entire order when you use coupon code: LUVIN-THE-PC
With this coupon Fluidos II = $67.18
Also, 10% off gift cards + 20% off (LUVIN-THE-PC) = 28% off
So, buy a $68 gift card for $48 and you can buy Fluidos II for essentially $50.
How to a use a gift card for myself?
How long does it take to get a serial number after purchase?
Ahh rats, forgot to to use that coupon - I thought it had expired
Have you checked in your account dashboard/serial numbers https://www.daz3d.com/downloader/customer/serialnumbers
Give your own address as recipient so you receive the card code, then redeem that code.
I did and I only have numbers for Fluidos I.
Considering the improvements I think the price is fair, and as it has already been mentioned, you can reduce the price a lot with the coupons and being smart with gift cards.
Anyway, looking great! My main problem with Fluidos is that I was never able to remove a "staircase" effect when clear liquid interacted with round objects. The comparisons shared here tells me that should be greatly improved in Fluidos II, sooo... buying it today :)
I think the price is fair, we are coming up to Black Friday sales though, and there is only so far I can spread my budget. This is going on the wishlist, I will pick it up at some time in the future, it just isn't something I need immediatly and I've got a feeling I am going to need the dollars elsewhere. It looks like a great job, and I will be buying it.
Here is the procedure to create the sweat drops.
I created a sphere primitive and overlapped with Floyd head.
The sphere in the domain.
I parented a Fluidos source to the sphere. Change the Geometric type to Any node, and set the randomness to 0.995. Velocity (x) is 0. This way, the sphere surface will be a source of drops. I chose the sphere instead of Floyd himself as a source to get more control of the drops (I didn't the drops all over the head of Floyd).
These are the settings of the bottom sink:
The main settings of the Fluidos Domain:
The gravity force Y was reduced to -6.0
Here are the Advanced Settings. Notice that the Meshing type is Trail. This one extends the mesh in the direction of flow so the flowing drops have a more elongated geometry instead of spherical one.
In my case, I disabled OpenCL because I get more speed from the CPU (my graphic card is old)
i know that. i'm talking about adding money to the card (like how much money do i need to add and will that mean i have to spend more just to save an extra 10% on checkout?)
Fluidos II with the intro discount and the LUVIN-THE-PC coupon (which is multi-uses) is 67.18$, so you would need a gift card for at least 68$ if you don't have store credit already.
A 68$ gc should be $48.96 in the cart with the 10% off and the LUVIN-THE-PC coupon.
Once you've redeemed it you can buy Fluidos II with the store credit you have (don't forget to use coupon again).
Basically you spend 49$ of real money to get the product.
I now seem to have 2 x FluidOS licence codes and none for FlyuidOS II. Tried both, but neither work to register FluidOS II
Has the install process been streamlined? The first version was a nightmare to get installed and functioning.
