Rio.Dominia Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 u can use the rest field in the material. Just to render the right noise base on rest field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulh Posted May 15, 2015 Share Posted May 15, 2015 Download Alejandro's hip files from this thread: https://www.sidefx.com/index.php?option=com_forum&Itemid=172&page=viewtopic&t=26082&highlight= That should get you started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudenay Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 (edited) In Alejandro Files, AutoDopNetwork>pyro(Smoke Object)>Fields>Rest is checked on but AutoDopNetwork>pyro(Smoke Object)>Initial Data>Add Rest Field isn't checked neither AutoDopNetwork>pyrosolver1>Advanced>Rest Field>Enable Rest. So how can it produce Rest datas? You can see that if you middle click on import_pyro_build>import_pyrofields there are no rest.x rest .y and rest.z, they do appear if you check the Add Rest Field and Enable Rest as previously mentioned. So i don't really understand how the Alejandro file is interesting for the "Rest" purpose. Maybe i miss something. It's good for the explosion rendering. This next thread is a good answer: http://forums.odforce.net/topic/20659-fluid-simulation-what-is-rest-field-for/ it has a link to a project that Ian generously share with the odforce community: http://fx-td.com/?p=329 This next link also help to understand, even if the provided file may turn houdini down: https://www.sidefx.com/forum/topic/31320/ The best answer i've found is in the Steven Knipping tutorials, at the end of Applied Houdini - Dynamics 2 he turns on the rest field and in Dynamics 3 (5b) he explains how to use it. The entire bundle is brilliant, you can watch the 1 out of 6 for free.
