NextLimit RealFlow 10.5.3.0189

Next Limit has released RealFlow 10.5, the latest update to its fluid simulation software, adding a new Macro daemon to mimic the look of high-speed photography, and a curvature-cohesion mode for surface tension. The release is the first significant update to the standalone product in two years, Next Limit having been focusing on the new integrated 3ds Max, Cinema 4D and Maya editions.

New Macro daemon mimics the look of high-speed fluid photography
The main new feature in RealFlow 10.5 is the Macro daemon, intended to mimic the look of fluids seen in real-world high-speed macro photography. In particular, the daemon helps to recreate the form of crown splashes, including the thickening that occurs around the upper edge of the ‘crown’.

Updates to the Surface Tension daemon, plus support for image denoising via Maxwell
Other changes include a new curvature-cohension mode for RealFlow’s Surface Tension daemon. The product website describes it simply as providing an alternative look for fluid simulations, and notes that it works with either standard particle simulations, or RealFlow’s Dyverso multiphysics solver.

The update also makes RealFlow compatible with the current release of Maxwell, Next Limit’s physically based render engine, including the Altus denoising system introduced in Maxwell 4.1.

NextLimit RealFlow is an industry-standard, out-of-the-box fluid simulation software. Fast and easy to use, it is compatible with ALL major 3D platforms. Simulate anything from a single drop of water to a massive tsunami.

RealFlow 10: Technical Reel


Next Limit Technologies provides cutting-edge simulation technologies for a broad range of applications in computer graphics, science and engineering.
