  • Phoenix FD convert units meters to feet?

    I have scene created in meters, that is standard for Phoenix FD liquid, but I have to reopen them in the scene with feet w/fractional inches 1/32 and system feet 1.0.
    What does change? Because if i load presets from meters scene to feet w/fractional inches scene, it doesnt work anymore.
    If its just about the scale 1.0 (at meters scene), what would be the number at feet w/fractional inches​ scene to get same result?
    Does it also needs to be manually changed on Liquid source and Shaders? I am just looking for correct numbers for all.
    Thanks

    Hello,

    How do you reopen the scene in different scene scale? Could it be that when opening the scene you chose the option to Rescale the objects to the System unit scale?
    If you did, this won't work correctly.

    How about you open the scene in the original unit scale which is meters, then with the scene open, change the display units to feet w/fractional inches 1/32 and system feet 1.0​ and save the scene.
    This will change how you display the settings, but all of the relevant parameters will remain the same and should work correctly. After that you can continue working in feet.
