| Oct 24, 2015 at 17:12 | comment | added | Peridigital | @m.ardito I've got the ocean set up nicely, and the scene is such that I don't need to see the "origin" of the wave, just the big spray. Is fluid sim the best way to do the big spray? Or is there a better option? | |
| Oct 24, 2015 at 8:41 | comment | added | m.ardito | I guess fluidsim could do that but not quite easily... it is a hell complex fluid motion you see there... you will need a lot of experience and computing power.. and if you need the ocean, I would suggest separate tools, ocean simulator for the general look, and some fluidsim for the spray. Professional (movies) CG is a lot about cheating, is to do what look best, cheaply as possible. | |
