  • Our friend Alvaro Moreira / alvaro.vfx.skull put quite a lot of work in optimizing small scale fluid meshes over the last couple of months. Today he wants to share his findings with the Entagma community. Watch him smooth a fluid's surface while maintaining sharp creases between the parts of this viscous fluid.

    Great tutorial. Honestly the thing that blew my mind the most was that you can select two nodes and use ALT to auto-merge them together. You've probably shaved off literally minutes of my day putting down merge nodes.

    Hi! Very good tutorial. I'm trying to export alembic but the attribblur is not working on that and it makes the mesh look really bad. In houdini it looks really good though.

    I'm a newbie with houdini and I don't understand why you prefer to build the whole structure of nodes instead of using the Particle Fluids shelf tab. Is there any reason for this?
