FumeFX C4D Billowing Smoke/Fire Tutorial

[@the_pyromaniac_dude]

extremely helpful for beginners like me, thank you sir!

[@sitnisati]

You're welcome!

[@shie4134]

FumeFX is just GREAT !! 😫

[@sitnisati]

Thank you!

[@mistakenme]

Can't wait for tutorials for octane users

[@tania2654]

Superb... Thank you for making tutorials.. I requested. It will help me.

[@germanmairen]

Great tutorial! really helpful. Please, support Octane soon!

[@sitnisati]

Thank you! We hope that Octane devs will be able to add FumeFX support very soon.

Hi sir awesome work

[@sitnisati]

Thank you!

[@gfxfarhan]

Sir can you provides a tutorial on helicopter dust landing please

[@jay-arcristobal5211]

do you have tutorial like how to create those box? I am a beginner here. thanks

[@gfxfarhan]

Sir I need tutorial or helicopter dust landing sir please please help me I create a scene of helicopter Landing I am trying from 1 week to make the dust effect with fumefx in 3ds max but I failed to get the effect like you made please sir help me

[@redseocomau]

Hello! Great tutorial. Your allembic data for the back corridor is no longer available. Can you please update the tutorial file?

[@sitnisati]

Thank you! The scene file is still available on the bit.ly link provided with the clip.

[@sergey041963]

I downloaded your file, the simulation is running, but I see only walls in Arnold's window, there is no smoke, why?

[@sitnisati]

The customer support is available on our support forum only.

[@JamalPennant]

I'm trying to use my gpu to render quicker. As Arnold does not support volumes on GPU is there a way to use AOV's to render fumefx and GPU for everything else?

[@sitnisati]

Redshift now has a dirrect FumeFX support, so you might try that solution.

[@saadrs7555]

Can you do this with 3ds max please

[@Ghost_COD_000]

Dude when I type smoke it does not change the cube remain as it is.. Please tell any solution..

[@sitnisati]

Please use our offiicial support forum for technical questions. Thank you.

[@nono_palace]

Hello, a question to have quality smoke I need gigabytes and gigabytes of capacity to store the simulation right? there is no way to optimize storage?

[@sitnisati]

Hello, If you're exporting velocities then the caches can get really big. There is a lossy compression for .fxd files which is good for channels that you won't need directly in rendering.

[@许一一-v9y]

When running the model, CPU utilization is very low. Why? Will it be optimized in the future?

[@sitnisati]

Hello, If you have a large grid, the CPU utilization will grow with complexity and for the critical simulation parts it'll be close to 100%.

[@yasiraboobakar1832]

Awesome. Your PC specification?

[@sitnisati]

It's an old HP Workstation with 2x10 core Xeon E5-2690 v2 and 128Gb or memory.

[@ICGDO]

When will X-particles be supported?

[@sitnisati]

Hello, It is supported now with 5.0.2 update.

[@JamalPennant]

Thanks for this! Question on the size of the default simulation, once mine was finished it was over 100 gig. At the start of sim in the general tab it said it would be 7gig. Is this normal or have a i got a setting wrong? Also if i finished a wavelet turbulence sim do I still need the default sim data or can I delete it if im using wavelet as my playback?

[@sitnisati]

7 Gig is estimated maximum amount of memory required per frame. Once you're finished with Wavelet sim, Default caches are not needed anymore.

[@redfalconvfx7050]

I don't know what I am doing wrong but when I render it with Arnold render I see only a cube not smoke

[@redseocomau]

Mate, did you end up solving this problem?

[@redfalconvfx7050]

@@redseocomau not fully but still it doesn't looks as real as I want.. but now it is not a cube any more..

[@redfalconvfx7050]

@@redseocomau I think it will be better if we use 3ds max, Maya or Houdini for get a better Cloud, smoke, fire and explosions effects then C4D

[@redseocomau]

@@redfalconvfx7050 how did you fix the issue? No matter which parameters I change I can't get the smoke to render.

[@zekedabomb3343]

@@redfalconvfx7050 yes

[@Ijilil]

my smoke rises instead of falls, even with -20 buoyancy

[@sitnisati]

That's probably because of very high temperature inside the grid that forces smoke to rise. Try to set Temperature to 0.

non si capisce nulla

[@user-prokopych]

Круто =)

[@Mxxm2024]

corona render plz

[@andritarigan7951]

When I render it with Arnold, I see the cube not smoke, how to fix it?

[@sitnisati]

Make sure to properly assign channel names to the Arnold Volume shader.

[@ICGDO]

How do you drive x-particles? Or not? When will it be ready?

[@sitnisati]

FumeFX 5.0.2 for C4D supports X-Particles and Redshift as well. Apparnetly, Octane support has added as well.
