Hi All,
Well it is the end of the second week and no news
for the new Realflow plugin for XSI. I'm not surprised, but very
disappointed.
I've been talking to Kim about Realflow's new mesh
file format. (md file)
Of course, Realfllow doesn't come with this plugin,
you have to write it yourself. :(
Heres what the help file says:
Mesh secuence (.md): Meshes' sequence.
Rf
provides an advanced feature oriented to resources optimization and memory
saving; .md file formats. This is a new exporting formats for meshes. The user
will be able to choose which particular information to keep from the simulation
(speed, density, pressure...) for shading purposes. An SDK is available for this
format, so anybody can create their own translator. This is new format contains
particle attributes mapped to the geometry´s
vertex.
temperature
mass
pressure
density
viscosity
isolation
age
texture
neighbors
normal
force
velocity
I was wondering if anyone knows more about this or
has written a plugin for it? :) Because it would be so handy being able to
shade meshes based on this data.
But until now, its back to the old
plugin.
For those interested, here is what im working on in
my spare time using RF 4 and XSI 5. And my two year old laptop :)
Cheers all
Dunk
