  As a new user, I love this add-on and have had great results in a very short time.

  Let me start off with this: This is UNDENIABLY the best fluid simulator for Blender and I use it all the time. I created a giant tsunami of coffee (yes coffee) with this sim and the final result looked incredible, but the process was maddening. If you are looking to guide your fluid to a precise location at a precise time, it will be VERY hard for you. First of all, baking at a low resolution and then switching to high resolution do not yield the same results, forcing you to bake tests at your final resolution. Secondly, this simulator does not run on the GPU, so baking high-res simulations is a very lengthy process (mine took around 75 hours at resolution 500 on an i7-7700k). Thirdly, after a full res bake taking over 3 days, there were strange line-like artifacts in my fluid, forcing me to start over with different settings. This was for a commercial project, so explaining my technical problems to my client was difficult. The project's release was delayed and I had to settle for a lower-res bake. Overall, this is great if you don't care about the exact direction or end result of your fluid, but iterating on a sim can be hard. In the meantime, I'll keep my eye out for GPU based liquid sims similar to Embergen's realtime smoke sim.

  One of the best fluids simulation plugins. User friendly and very fast.
  Does have some limitations especially with following a path and large scale simulations for more realistics whitewater and foams.
  The presets need a bit more works but are a good base to start off and learn from it.
  Using it on a threadripper 3970X did improve my simulation time by a lot from an i7 8700k. So it does scale well with cores. It has great potentials, keep it up.
  Cheers

  A crazy plugin. Playing with liquids has never been easier.
  Congratulations.

  The only thing I am missing pretty much is using FlipFluids with Blender force fields. The Blender internal fluidsystem already works well with it. When implemented, you´ll get 5 Stars :)

  Magical. This add-on is completely additive and worth every bit of the paltry $76! Buy it!

  I have been using Flip Fluids for a couple years now and its been a rewarding and enjoyable experience. In my opinion its easier to use and much more powerful than blenders internal fluid sim.

  Ive had several issues (ended up being on my end) and questions and Ryan has gone above and beyond trying to help me. The add on is also still receiving updates and new features.

  I will be on the lookout for hopefully some new add ons in the future from these guys.
