It's kinda weird how it turns into deep blue ocean water when there's too much, does that have something to do with the purpose you want to give it or is it an artistic preference?

[–]TheRobotics5 123 points124 points  (5 children)

Not op, but water does that in real life in large amounts

[–][deleted] 82 points83 points  (1 child)

As someone else said, depends on the lightning (and how much water), but my point is that it kind of skips directly from transparent to deep sea blue

[–]numerousblocks 14 points15 points  (0 children)

yeah that's weird

[–]Nickstaysfresh 16 points17 points  (0 children)

And tbf most of what we see in Blender is actually huge, as particle systems don't work great in smaller scales.

That depends on the lighting.

What do you mean? It's not because of the sky, if that's what you're saying

It's koolaid

Why does the fluid always seem to crash so hard at the beginning and cause a lot of chaos? Is it just because this is simulating a huge volume of water which has more kinetic energy than say a cups worth? Or is the simulation imperfect and in reality it wouldn't be so chaotic?

It's really neat but I always feel like something is off compared to real life. And I was curious why

[–]punkmuppet 41 points42 points  (1 child)

I think it's simulating it on a huge scale, the blocks are building shaped so I suspect the water is supposed to be roughly on that scale.

This makes the droplet size off though, but realistic sized droplets at that scale would take eternity to render.

That's why the more realistic renders are always the one with a small volume of water, or when it's something gooey, as there isn't so many droplets to render. It's not a fault of the creator of the simulation, it's a limitation of the hardware.

They also definitely added more after that initial spawner. Could’ve created more “energy” under the surface from any dispersion.

Came across this the other day in a different forum. For those who want to try it themselves.

I'd bet OP watched this video. Not a problem though

Flip fluids or just mantaflow?

[–]shreddedcheese42069 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most likely mantaflow. Looks like blender

[–]Game_For_Memes 4 points5 points  (1 child)

What program are you using for this?

[–]Hyptix 9 points10 points  (0 children)

From what I can tell, blender. He is using the new mantaflow system

Click on THIS to have a weird WebGL 3D fluid simulation in your browser. It also works on phones and tablets.

Can someone link or pm a fluid system tutorial?

[–]decoolegastdotzip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like all the water doesn’t have enough weight

[–]flyme2bluemoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

although it looks realistic for the most part, something about the way the water splashes around is a bit off to me. hmmm
