Hello world Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Hi I am beginning with pyro I would like to know what kind of custom fields can be setup? For example,custom field like color mixing of liquid,interaction between solvers,gas flowing through a curve,divergence etc are common. could anyone tell what are the other areas the custom fields are applied? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunker Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 (edited) What do you want to do? can you be more specific? are you talking about field manipulation or creation?

Annon Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Well a custom field is what it says on the tin, it's custom... So you can do whatever the hell you like, there is no limits, if that is what you're asking... If you're asking what kind of things are useful, or used a lot, I can't speak for others, but I use a lot of distance based velocity updates. So to react in certain ways the nearer it gets to an object, either pulling it in or pushing it out etc or directing it a certain way. Just start playing, you'll soon find something you need to create. Christian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loudsubs Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 So lets say I create a custom field with gas match field, copying density into my custom field. Is there a way other than the gas field vop to fitrange my custom field? Is there a microsolver that performs this function? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunker Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 // example from the Pyro shader float myfit(float val, s0,s1, t0,t1) { return (val-s0)*(t1-t0)/(s1-s0) + t0; } You need a per-voxel approach since the value you fit (val) is different for each voxel so it would say the gas field vop is your best option So lets say I create a custom field with gas match field, copying density into my custom field. Is there a way other than the gas field vop to fitrange my custom field? Is there a microsolver that performs this function? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loudsubs Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Cool, thanks for the info. Slowly getting my head around dop volumes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
