the material for the inside emitter isn't showing the color. its black. when i was making the material on the tutorial..no color shown. any way to fix this?

Can you show a more in depth look into the finishing touches?

So cool and helpful! Thanks for sharing!

[@MilkyClayGALAXY]

Sometimes blender really surprises me (I mean creators off course 😅)

[@ChaosAOE]

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO CANNOT GET THE FLUID TO TURN BLUE AT 3:15 1. Change from wireframe mode to viewport shading 2. Hide the cube and outer sphere 3. Check where you "deleted" the vertex at the top of the sphere containing the liquid for me there was a false face still generated in this area. If you cannot see through the space into the sphere then click on the face and hit 'X' then select 'delete face'

[@arg4712]

For me it was the frame being at 0 and when i moved to 1 the liquid appeared. Hopefully this helps someone.

If you use blender 2.83 you dont need to have a hole in the effector object. ie. the ball can roll around with fluid in it without leaking. For some reason 2.90 onwards wont do this-no fluid will appear in a sealed effector.

[@HetShah08]

I am trying to do this with the version 3.2 and i am facing the same issue, not getting the fluid. can you please guide me through it

[@Direkin]

I don't really like the look of glass casting a shadow like that. Pretty cool tutorial though. Will give this a try later :)

Thank you for perfect tutor! Unfortunately, I can't render in cycles(it`s too hard for my comp), so question, which type of shader fits for eevee (besides a principle bsdf with one color)?

[@TimeIsMine93]

Does the normals being flipped effect the material at all? I ask because I noticed when making a glass I some how flipped my normals and it looked off, after asking around, I checked and flipped them back and it actually affected the look a bit. Which I did not expect to work with the material being clear

[@brighttendaimuvirimi1905]

Thanks for your great tutorials, I am a blender noob, my problem is when I instance the icosphere it is emitting from the 3d cursor separate from the fluid, what am I doing wrong, thank you.

Hey, I seem to have a problem, when i have planar checked on the effector the sim breaks, i have it unchecked and the sim works but all the particles fall straight through. Any ideas?

Is it possible to do with a different object instead of glass sphere, more complex, like the blender monkey, for example?

[@Akingvender]

@Blender Made Easy I got to 12:20, but when I am in the particle tab, I have no option to scale the particles. Did I not click something I was supposed to? I am in blender 2.93 Edit: Solution: Turns out I just had to update to blender 3.01

I turned the liquid back on on the particle section and nothing happens at all. Does anyone know a possible solution please or what I've done wrong for future reference?

FOR THOSE WHO DIDN'T GOT THEIR SPHERE TURNED BLUE AT 3:15 , JUST ENSURE THAT YOU CHECKED IN TO LIQUID SETTINGS BELOW BORDER COLLISIONS

[@FulguroGeek]

My question is how could we create the same effect with something that look more like a real liquid?? I made this tutorial and even in your video the liquid part since its made with a small ico sphere look more like sands and the liquid look pixalated. Is cranking up the resolution would help to remove that effect?? or to make liquid look like liquid its a total different process?

[@neonnuke1149]

you can use mesh settings in physics tab

[@bradloflin6776]

I agree. Bake simulation, then Create mesh from simulation, bake that. Then you can also add foam and spray particles, but you must bake each. There is a Blender 3.1 tut that shows this by MK Graphics.

[@acid-nemesis]

Hey ! Saw a lot of your tutorials and it seems like you have a lot of experience with fluid simulations ! I wanna know, how would you achieve a "blocky" smoke simulation ? Something close to the "Cubic" Viewport Display. There is no mention of this anywhere and you are my last chance, do you know how this could be achieved ?

[@BlenderMadeEasy]

Hi there, fortunately yes I do know how to achieve that look. I've created a tutorial with the basic process. After you have converted it to a mesh just add the Remesh Modifier on top of it all and set the mode to Blocks and that will give you the cubic look. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aoKwpouHfcRokKM

[@adaa4811]

Sir please create an electricity effect

[@rolandrickphotography]

Awesome, thanks. Can someone explain to a newbie what "baking in" exactly does? Please see e.g. 6:09.

[@ElMatero6]

Essentially Baking In allows you to view the particles in the viewport without blender lagging as much. It also makes it easier to render.

[@parvverma8548]

Hello there, I am having problem in rendering the animation. I have a 1560 gtx nvidia, 16gb asus f15. Please tell me a way to counter this problem.

[@silvertalisman9061]

if you where wondering the minimum resolution for 1 hole is 62

[@naavie]

Could you just use the sphere as a fluid domain object? So instead of having a cube-shaped domain and a spherical obstacle inside it, you could just have a spherical domain.

[@BlenderMadeEasy]

Nope that does not work. The domain will always be the shape of a cube even if you use a sphere.
