Hello, I’m currently trying to test out a fountain simulation that will resemble something similar to this. https://www.dropbox.com/s/3y7w34q18o08388/Fountain_example.jpg?dl=0 My problem right now is that my water is too thick and blobby. You can look at my example here, https://www.dropbox.com/s/…

Hi, the first thing you should do is to increase the grid resolution. That’s why you can’t achieve thinner water and can’t use smaller geometry because voxel size is too large. If the voxel size is larger than the object it won’t emitt properly or at all. I think you won’t need a plain force after …

Thank you, I really appreciate the help! I adjusted the parameters and it’s looking good now.

Hello, So I got my water to behave and it looks a lot better after I adjusted the settings. Currently, I’m using the Cascade simulator option and I have a water material applied to the bottom simulation which is working fine. However, now I’m having issues with the second simulation box; for some …

Hi, it’s really hard to say. But you need more fps for sure :slight_smile: Would you send us a scene to investigate it?

Yes, I will increase the fps so that it doesn’t look so jagged. I sent the file over for review. Thanks, Dani

I’m struggling with this too, I tried reducing the cell size but it would mean making simulation time into several days… Or maybe I’m just doing something wrong. Any chance we could get a template setup? I found it mentioned somewhere that an early version of Phoenix came with a sample scene with a …

Hi, If you’re new with Phoenix and using Phoenix 3.0 it’s good to begin with presets and modify them as you wish. Try tap water preset for fountains. Increasing cell size will increase simulation time.

Hello DaniSan, In your scene you need to select your Particle Shaders, right-click and from the V-Ray properties enable Cast and Receive GI. By default those are off for the Particle shader.
