In this lesson, we will take a detailed look at the Pyro simulation system. Have you ever tried to figure out how smokesolver or pyrosolver works? When I first started studying Houdini, asked myself this question many times. But every time I looked inside, I realized that without an explanation Read more…
This tutorial series focuses on creating large-scale explosions on water. We will look at creating several scenes with different types of explosions. Both in scale and in type. Such simulations are quite often used in game cinematics, movies, etc. After studying these lessons, you will be able to learn to Read more…
In this series of tutorials, we will look at creating splashes and foam from a floating ship. Simulation, on the one hand, is rather banal. But it has a number of features. Much depends on the type of ship, the height of the waves, or simply on the director’s vision Read more…
In this lesson I will cover some methods creating large scale simulations in Pyro. Inspired by “Midway”, I decided to create a scene with a destroyed ship and with a lot of smoke around. The main problem was that large-scale simulation requires a large amount of resources. Therefore, I decided Read more…
Tutorial description In these lessons, we will create several different types of tornadoes. From small dust to huge deadly ones. And at the and, play with the fire. We will learn how to use manually created forces. For simulating particles and in the Pyro system. Using cache, applying materials, and compositing examples. All this and much Read more…
Course Description A series of lessons, showing destruction of the building, as a result of an explosion. They show the whole process from scratch. Starting with the geometry preparation, ending with the render settings. The fragmentation techniques, creation of forces, constraints setup, activation and dynamics are studied also. Work with windows Read more…
Course Description In this lesson we will learn the fluid simulation in Houdini, using, as an example, the city flooding scene. Go throw the all stages of creating asimulation, starting with the source, ending with rendering and compositing. Makea FLIP simulation, white water tool for splashes and mantra as render engine. Asan Read more…
