Our friend Alvaro Moreira www.instagram.com/alvaro.vfx.skull/ put quite a lot of work in optimizing small scale fluid meshes over the last couple of months. Today he wants to share his findings with the Entagma community. Watch him smooth a fluid's surface while maintaining sharp creases between the parts of this viscous fluid.

I deeply appreciate all the work you guys put into these tutorials in these troubling times.

Great tutorial. Honestly the thing that blew my mind the most was that you can select two nodes and use ALT to auto-merge them together. You've probably shaved off literally minutes of my day putting down merge nodes.

Good one! I did similar sim (toothpaste simulation, it's in my videos) but couldn't get it to work through flip solver. So I had to figure out a workaround.

Hi! Very good tutorial. I'm trying to export alembic but the attribblur is not working on that and it makes the mesh look really bad. In houdini it looks really good though.
@Djoshua1000 3 months ago

Thank you for the lesson. one question - how to write the last stage of smoothing (using the blur attribute) in alembic? because the alembic itself is preserved without smoothing

I wish all tutorial (in general) had those first 2 minutes of a walk-through...

Hi particle skull!! Thank you for those amazing tips! Q: why don't choose "vdb from particle fluid" instead of "vdb from particle", what the difference?
