AquaForge Pro & Studio - GPU Liquid Simulation

3D Nation in Simulations & Effects

Fixes

  • Liquid in a glass keeps its level as it settles. Particles packed along the glass's walls, and volume correction then drew the liquid beside them toward the walls: water poured into a glass sank by about a quarter over a few seconds. Now settled water holds its level within a few percent, on the CPU and the GPU, in a glass or any other obstacle.

Install: install over 1.0.1 (Edit > Preferences > Get Extensions > Install from Disk). Your scenes and caches keep working; rebake scenes with liquid in a glass or another obstacle to get the fix.

  • Honey and other thick liquids at rest no longer stir themselves: viscosity now acts before gravity in each step.
  • A liquid with its own viscosity keeps its level over long bakes: volume correction no longer packs thick liquid tighter.
  • Scenario Library: picking a category always selects one of its scenes (the picker could come up empty after switching category).
  • New sidebar look: icons on every panel header, and tiles for the roles and Quick Start actions.

Install aquaforge-1.0.1.zip over 1.0.0 (Edit › Preferences › Get Extensions › Install from Disk). Your scenes and bakes keep working.

First release of AquaForge Pro.

Fixes

  • Liquid in a glass keeps its level as it settles. Particles packed along the glass's walls, and volume correction then drew the liquid beside them toward the walls: water poured into a glass sank by about a quarter over a few seconds, and layered liquids (juice over grenadine, honey under water) by more. Now settled water holds its level within a few percent, on the CPU and the GPU, in a glass or any other obstacle, and layered liquids stay layered.

Install: install over 1.0.1 (Edit > Preferences > Get Extensions > Install from Disk). Your scenes and caches keep working; rebake scenes with liquid in a glass or another obstacle to get the fix.

Fixes

  • Liquids of their own keep their volume: in Oil on Water the oil no longer packs the water tighter as it rises, so the water level and the oil layer stay where they should (CPU and GPU).
  • Background bakes no longer run out of memory when the liquid object already existed before the first bake: the surface is meshed at the bake's cell size.

Install: install over 1.0.0 (Edit > Preferences > Get Extensions > Install from Disk). Your scenes and caches keep working; rebake multi-liquid scenes to get the fix.

First release of AquaForge Studio: everything in Pro 1.0.1, plus floating objects, liquids of their own (multi-fluid), the Studio scenarios and resolution up to 1024.

  • Everything in the free Lite, plus the GPU solver (about 14x faster), Live Preview, spray, foam and bubbles, force fields and wind, surface tension, 30 liquids, 40 ready-made scenes, Alembic export and resolution up to 400.

    $27

  • Everything in Pro, plus floating objects, liquids that layer by weight (each in its own object), Studio's scenes and resolution up to 1024. Installs over Pro: your scenes keep working.
