This is done on a i9-12900KF 3.19 GHz with 64 RAM. The GPU is RTX 2080.

@@zdravkopavlov thankyou

Thank you for saying this. I'm really glad that someone finds it useful :)

Wow. Thanks! :) Yeah this is a lot of work, but might be worth it.

What’s vat?

@@zdravkopavlov Vertex Animation Texture

Ah… I don’t know. I don’t know anything about this.

What input does it take to make it?

Probably not anytime soon. There is a scene file that you can download and inspect though. I realise that it is not exactly for beginners. Maybe some day I’ll revisit this project and record a more detailed explanation

Yes, I'm planning to do a Complete Beginners Series. Can you tell me where do you think I should start? What is "from scratch". I feel that making beginner tutorials would be a lot harder than just sharing some tips, assuming that people know what you are talking about. So if you can share what you want to learn about first, that might help me a lot.

Thank you!

Last year, I did a small R&D about this. gyazo.com/e81fb5d2c11790f7b17b3d007d654c18 Can you show me a reference shot that you are interested in.? Is it a close-up of the jets? Or something else?

@@zdravkopavlov yes I'll get you one today

You are welcome!

You can control the amount of foam particles with the birth amount parameter. Or, if you like it better without foam you can disable it.

Maybe you've missed something?

It’s better than me talking :)

Hey, my e-mail is in the channel's info.

​@@zdravkopavlovI'm sorry, don't judge me please, but I can't see any mail in the info :(

Why would I judge you :))) It's vfx@bunchofpixels.com I really thought it is visible :) Sorry.

@zdravkopavlov no worries :) Thank you!

Hi, maybe I can do that, yes. In the meantime, you can watch a video that Svetlin did covering that topic: ruclips.net/video/6Hr1vhvPq1U/видео.html

Well, I used this setup to create one of the other videos on this channel. Started making a tutorial, but didn’t finish it.

Hi, this scene was made with Phoenix 3.0 and was uploaded seven years ago. I don't have any idea how much it took. :)

Do you think the tutorial is hard to follow?

@HammerChen I'm sorry to learn this about Chaos. Your tutorials always helped me and I appreciate you sharing them.

@HammerChen Can you share the link to the tutorial

Oh, that's easy! You can simply use the "Fill Up for Ocean" and leave a "drain" somewhere on the bottom. Dang, I even started to make a tut about that. It was a river, not an ocean. And it was a spring, not a drain. But it is the same principle. Also, you can put a source with a negative emission value. That should "drain" some of the water. Or maybe even a non-solid object with the "Clwar inside" option enabled. There are several ways to do that.

@zdravkopavlov that's basically what I do with the negative emmiter. It seems the math doesn't always work exactly, but I make it work visually through trial and error

It is an AI voice. Thank God for this thing existing! :) I can't talk like that.

Yes please!

super helpful man. really apreciate it

Yeah. It's like I shot it with one of my cheap lenses :)

Yes, please!

@@zdravkopavlov i would love to see a tutorial of it written or recorded, since Phoenix has a lot of parameters which can be confusing at times. I wouldn't want to impose on you any further so if you know any good tutorial on the subject please give a link to it

I'm actually writing the script at the moment. Tell me, please, what would be more interesting. The liquid setup with the tuners, or do you think I should cover the material setup as well?

@@zdravkopavlovdefinitely the tuners part i think the material isn't that complex as far as i understand i believe you can make it with a vray distance texture to the object and blend between two materials one is water and the other is maybe wet sand or another liquid like a water with sand particles in it with the use of an opacity map

@@zdravkopavlov i am more interested in how you got the mesh to disappear on contact with the sand and leave the wet map behind

Yes, it is V-ray

Nice👌

Hi, phoenix has a built-in liquid absorption option. It is available when you enable the wetting option. It is suitable for 99% of the time but has some limitations. Here, I made a custom system with a couple of particle tuners. This gave me the ability to mask different surfaces. Although this doesn't come by default in Phoenix, it has all the tools you need to build it yourself.
