  deformed objects as a source
Posted by: Lothar1952 - 06-18-2019, 04:03 PM - Forum: FumeFX [C4D] - Replies (2)

... don´t work. It stops all simulation.
Just remove the animated deformer and capsule will simulate...
A PLA (posemorph) will work .

For example when im on simulation tab and im scrolling all down and then swaping to other tabs, the whole list on new tab stays where it was on last one so instead of starting on top its down below.
Its bit enoing as i have to scroll all up every time i need it


  Stoping Simulation on property changing emitter
Posted by: semiasty - 06-18-2019, 03:21 PM - Forum: FumeFX [C4D] - Replies (3)

Had that today. Torus changing its size from 0 to 100 then back to 0. Set on as emitter. Simulation started and after few frames it just stoping. Its not crushing, it just not going any further. There is no crash report etc.

  emission from variable point count
Posted by: Lothar1952 - 06-18-2019, 01:47 PM - Forum: FumeFX [C4D] - Replies (3)

looks like fume doesn´t like object emissions from objects that change point/polygon count during animation.
Tried if generators like sweep will work for emission - ok they don´t will be limitation I suppose.
So I tried baking to alembic. First try to sim I got a crash ( that´s the reason for the filename) but could not reproduce it.
I succeeded to emit from the alembic, but fume is shooting around and really doesn´t like that thing ...

  Arnold Renderer tips
Posted by: sitnisati - 06-18-2019, 12:00 PM - Forum: FumeFX [C4D] - Replies (11)

Hello,

Few important bits when using Arnold renderer in Cinema 4D.

When rendering with Arnold, please make sure that you set the scale to 0.01 as on the image below.

For FumeFX-Arnold Volume shader used with Arnold Standard Volume, enter Smoke for Density, Scattering and Transparency.

Happy rendering!

  sim problem

R 20.059

CPU:
AMD Threadripper 1950x

GPU:
Nvidia RTX 2080

GPU Version:
419.67

original scene had 100 frames and simmed fine, but I thought might be worth to see further development and changed scene length to 200. But resimming stops at 100 . Found I have to set output range to 200 by hand. Why does it not adapt to new scene length automatic like it does if I add a sim object at a given scene length ?

EDIT - just see there is another problem. Objects emit one coloured smoke. After they changed positions they can´t decide which coulour to emit and emit 2 colours all of a sudden ...

I´d expect the smoke shadows being coloured like the glas shard´s in front of the platonics, but they are all black ...

for me temperature, fuel, and smoke are fine, but oxygen does nothing. Parameters available from -100 to +100 but what could I expect from negative oxygen ?

i tried to continue a simulation, but after a couple of frames FumeFx hangs and was not responsvie any longer.
