Strawberries colliding milk (Realflow simulation) - Slow motion

The milk mesh seen in this shot has been generated by Realflow 5. Since then, I made a new mesh from within Max using Frost and the result is far better: no more holes, no more flickering. I'd like to show you but I'm not sure I have the time to re-render all the shot as it was a long process, mainly due to the 2 VRayFastSSS2 shaders (milk and strawberries).

- About 1.8M particles are present within the simulation.
- Simulation time was about 120 hours.
- It took about 150 hours to render on 3dsMax 2011 (64bits) using VRay 1.5 SP5. The frames were strawberries were plainly seen were the longest. It's related to their VRayFastSSS2 settings.
- The bin (particles) folder is 17GB large.
- System specs are: Intel Q6600 (quad-core) 2.4GHz (old proc ;)), 4GB Ram at that time (now I have 8GB).

Made with 3ds Max 2011, VRay 1.5 SP5, Realflow 5, Photoshop CS5 and After Effect CS5.

Check your settings cause the milk seems like it's flickering towards the end of the animation.

@MrRemingt0n I suggest you read the video description then ;)

Have a good day.

Hi, could you run me through the technicalities of this video?

-How many particles did you use

-How long was the sim time

-How large was the bin folder

-How long did it take to render on what renderer

-System specs

If it's not too much to ask :) Thanks a bunch!

@IceGene Hi !

- About 1.8M particles are present within the simulation.

- Simulation time was about 120 hours.

- It took about 150 hours to render on 3dsMax 2011 (64bits) using VRay 1.5 SP5. The frames were strawberries were plainly seen were the longest. It's related to their VRayFastSSS2 settings.

Hope it helps !

Cheers ^^

my friend how to make slow motion can you show me way?

[SmoothAngle]

@santralcixx Hello ;)

It's very easy. Click the arrow on the "Simultate" button in realflow then choose "Options".

From there, choose the desired "FPS output". It should be 30 by default.

Voilà ;)

Sell it to dove. Boom $100 and your own shampoo brand.

@SmoothAngle thx my friend you really expert if you have msn i want contact with you

@aurangzib Thanks for your comment ;)

I advise you mix it with strawberries' pulp xD

[SmoothAngle]

@FokBibi Yes, I'm aware of that. You can read the video description where I explain that I remeshed the particles since then, using Frost this time, with much better result : no more holes nor flickering ;)

Btw, thank you for your comment !
