@feedback55 @extraweg I think you told me a few years ago about wanting to get your piano back, very glad to hear it worked out!! And awesome that your daughter is getting into it too, both my daughters took lessons and still play. I've already started our 9-month-old banging on the keyboard 🤣

@feedback55 @extraweg Love the exposed action on your upright too, what make of piano? I'm starting to shop for an upright, the action is decent on my electric piano but I miss the acoustic piano vibe...

@feedback55 @extraweg Nice playing Mark, love this theme and the show was amazing! I found the arrangement on Musescore, gotta learn it before S2 comes out haha

@yader_de You're close on a couple of those! 🙂 15 substeps on the Crag one, visc at 8. No reseeding though as I wanted droplets to form, and all emission on the first frame. Grid scale at 2 as the surface field gets too noisy for surface tension calc when you go much lower. ST at 35.

More sticky FLIP sim R&D from a few months back, working on maintaining adhesion on fast-moving deforming geo. Not fast to solve but I’m loving the spray patterns! 💦

@what_i_found Found out about it a few weeks ago, life-changing!! 😂

Some fun experiments with FLIP divergence in @sidefx #Houdini , rendered with Karma XPU.

@thecgwiki @RAD_Studios I’m due for a replay on this one before picking up the sequel. So good!!!

[Dave Stewart @davegrafix]

@rajarajan_mano Haven’t seen the new Avatar flick yet but that’s a huge complement, thanks man! 😁

@tarubobo1 I love the cat bus!! 😊

[Dave Stewart @davegrafix]

@KebbuSama Thanks man, much appreciated!

[Dave Stewart @davegrafix]

@Ejviper 😂😂😂 The truth is out there!

[Dave Stewart @davegrafix]

@DoesCG Always striving for that smooth FLIP meshing, thanks man! 😁

[Dave Stewart @davegrafix]

@3Dmattias @simonfarussell Right there with you. We used to use Combustion as well but ADesk killed that… Fusion felt too clunky and imprecise, Nuke is still where it’s at. I can barely run off a simple encode in AE without it locking up…

[Dave Stewart @davegrafix]

@RealUnrealVFX Thanks man! 😁

[Dave Stewart @davegrafix]

@j_stov @threejs Same here, very back-burner, hope to dive back in over the holidays!

[Dave Stewart @davegrafix]

@j_stov @threejs Fun stuff! Been working on something similar in Houdini, not real-time though 😂

[Dave Stewart @davegrafix]

@NilEstany Thank you sir! 😊

[Dave Stewart @davegrafix]

Failures can be fun right? We all got a laugh out of these at the time 😂
