PhoenixFD powder sim

[stezza]

I dont have access to Phoenix forums to ask there, so here it is.

Can you simulate a powder blast with PheonixFD. We are looking to create some colourful explosions and was wondering if Phoenix would be a tool to help with this.
As a VRay for Maya user this would be preferable system to implement.

Thanks

yeah I don't see why not, you just sim the fluid as you would (explosion) then emit particles with it and render those (as your powder). You can also emit rgb color from source and they will mix color nicely.

Great thanks!
Will give it a spin!
