Ocean Sailing with Phoenix FD for 3Ds max and VRay NEXT

[@vrayguide]

Sorry for multiple posts - this one got correct fps for playback of samples - now they play smoother)

[@juanfelipegomezmunoz5552]

I just set everything just like u did and when I press the PLAY BUTTON in Phoenix FD tab NOTHING happens. I just lost 2 hours of my life.

[@juanfelipegomezmunoz5552]

Stucked at minute 20:45 to be more precise...

[@kiranviswanathan4411]

Dear Alex, Thank you so much for this demonstration .. finally was able to achieve the result i.e wake/Foam/Splash, not perfect as above but good enough for me :) !! Was trying for quite a long time in Autodesk Maya but surprisingly achieved the results in 3ds Max.

[@vrayguide]

yeah the new Phoenix got better workflow ..can be done with cm..no flipping around :)

[@kiranviswanathan4411]

@@vrayguide Wow. I wasn't aware of that, will try once again in cm setup as well :P

[@rossinidesigner2]

amazing !!! i just finish a boat design and i would love to do that animation on my design, so exited to se the results because the boat just going to be ready in 5 months.

[@vrayguide]

Awesome🙌

[@jokenadrian]

great work and thanks for sharing.

[@pranavchavan7389]

Thank you so much.

[@omidghotbi]

amazing tutorial, just i need to mention that you can not get the same result with newer version of phonixFD and vray because there are many options added in new versions that are disabled by default that in the past were active by default. so expect different result even if you download the project from website and run simulation you will see the complete different result. you can try to change the unit but you will never reach the same with this settings.

[@ProvVFX]

Fantastic tutorial. Very detailed and down to the point. Was able to get it done following your instructions but starting from scratch. I wonder how phoenixfd compares to houdini fluids. Do you know?

[@vrayguide]

Houdini is node based so you have a bit more control.. and it works with UE5, so Phoenix is limited to VRay 3DsMax environment

[@williamminnaar6311]

Good day - Awesome tutorial :) A question - Could I make a massive like - Wave, bigger than buildings? Do you maybe have a tutorial on making waves? Thanks

[@TheCinemarno]

thanks for the tut. I don't know if you're able to do it, but a tut on the compositing of this stuff in a real ocean could be very helpfull. Thanks for your work !!!

[@wilismatrix9847]

Thank you for the tutorial but regarding the units, Chaosgroup and Allen mackey recommend to use meters for large scale like ocean simulations , you can see that in their large boat simulation tutorial !

[@damir123damir]

Thank you for this guide, well explained, also link for your work.

[@sylvestersamuel1104]

This is beautiful, thanks for sharing, did you turn on GI in the final render?

[@joseeliasmartinezdiaz2023]

thank you very much good man, you have helped me a lot

[@petera.di.salvatore4493]

very nice video. What if I want to start particles emming from exam,ple from frame 100 to 200 then do I have to do it from the phoenix time line menu disabling the ticks ?

[@vrayguide]

Yes in simulation tab you can choose start / end frame…

[@Visualife]

Thank you Alex for the tutorial, how did you get rid of the flickering when using splashes? I cranked the ocean subdivision and mesh smoothing, liquid particle size at 0.5 nothing seam to help it's always flickering

[@mohamedizzeldin1194]

thanks so much

[@emirhantetik1996]

I cannot say a good education. Everything is by heart. You didn't mention what the settings you made are for!

[@Nattuber]

why can't I preview the water foam? help please

[@elierortiz9405]

Hello friend, I am a fan of your work ... I would like to know what parameters to put on the Phoenix modifiers to recreate more splashes and foams on the front of my boat at the time the boat is sailing.....It would be very nice if you answered me thanks

[@wizard_still]

Thank you, but why do I have blue water in the render?

[@gfxfarhan]

I put same values just like yours but the result is so much different and non realistic why?

[@vrayguide]

i guess wrong units scale. i used 10cm = 1 unit. I'll do 1cm tutorial in few..

[@rimshakayani5088]

@@vrayguide hey i've used the same unit scale setting and values on phoenix but still result's not the same

[@omidghotbi]

He is right bro i even open your project from your website and it's not the same result I think there are a few options that change in Phonix FD that was on/off by default befor@@vrayguide

[@the_3rdKind]

Anyone know why Ocean texture would show in the viewport but not render? Figured it out, Im using GPU.

[@infinitesound7815]

damn boy this is really great

[@AbyNeon]

How much ram did you need?

[@vrayguide]

I got 64 RAM

[@AbyNeon]

@@vrayguide thx for your reply!

[@omidghotbi]

For this scene about 16 is more than enough, I have 128GB but it never pass 16GB in this project. if you are using newer version of PhonixFD do not expect same results, some options are changed that was active by default before

[@AbyNeon]

@@omidghotbi 16gb is really little to what i thought you used

[@omidghotbi]

@@AbyNeon if you want i can resumulate it and send you screenshots most of the time is even less than 8gb

[@elegance128]

@vrayguide dude i am trying to do this its such amazing tutorial but my 3dsmax is crashing without any error after just finishing the render .... anybody know why ?

[@fulvio6615]

your website is offline

[@Warrior90s]

This is really amazing, Just wants to ask a questn, Fr 3ds Max architectural work and such kind on fluid animations I wants to upgrade my graphic card so which graphic card is good, quadro p4000 or rtx 3080... ? Pls help

[@vrayguide]

for that type of graphics, i'd invest in CPU, build a small render farm with lot's of CPUs..but for the future investment I'd go with RTX since everything is shifting to real-time, soon enough UE4 will be able to do that graphic level...you just have so many abilities to get amazing graphics with MEGA SCANS and unreal

[@Warrior90s]

@@vrayguide Thank you very much, 😊😊

[@lofi_foryou]

after the render the green water coming fine and the points are too much exposing that we cant recognize them as water splashes. just all white

[@the4cats524]

hey man, may I know your PC spec? it renders the scenes very fast.. and thank you for making this tutorial. it's so helpful :)

[@miquelsalvatejedor3123]

Thank you for sharing! Just one thing, this is not a sailing boat :)

[@biggiebeil5118]

Yes it's super yacht

[@livegamers7849]

6hrs to render i cant wait to test on my 5950x rtx rig gen4 ssd

[@betaprototype2404]

Thanks for the tutorial bro.. can you make the caramel liquid like this? www.stockfood.in/images/11298131-Caramel-sauce-being-poured-onto-a-white-surface Thanks a lot

[@Charlie_Alpha_Lima]

You just punch in random numbers and don't explain what the values mean. This doesn't help someone who needs to extrapolate this information a set up of a different scale

[@juanfelipegomezmunoz5552]

I think that if he in fact starts to explain each single one of those numbers... the video gets 5 hours long. It is understandable...

[@PrismFXStudio]

the original tutorial is on Chaos group channel and he explain when and why

[@PrismFXStudio]

see this kzbin.info/www/bejne/bHbRh2iwa6yko8k

[@livegamers7849]

this is what i made from your tutorial kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZWrioqtbMlnnKM 200frames is not 2min its 6 seconds, also how can i fix the green foam dont look natural

[@FanaticaExtremis]

This is a really sucky tutorial. You explain your work, true, but there is no logical buildup to it so a beginner can really understand. You just bombard with random settings without any explanation as to what they do and why you do them. Why the hell are you setting up ocean displacement texture before we are even shown how the fluid simulation system works at the basic level ?

she is absolutely unable to teach, often skips some parts and goes too fast
