Atom Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Have you tried using the Orbolt rain generator? It supports collision and ground splashes. For the crown style splashes you will have to make a single one using the FLIP fluid system and then instance that exported mesh sequence to all required ground splash points.

tushar v1 Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 Hii Atom, I tried orbolt rain generator, but it not helping me much I started working on the file but due to some reasons I cannot post the file, but at very I wanted to ask how can I create crown splashes with Particle like when particle collide with ground I added popreplicator to make crown shape. And I want that shape. Kindly help me on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbowden Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 You can get away with just doing a particle sim. If you are doing any kind of slow motion and you are close to the splashes then, I would recommend doing flip. I would do about 5 difference varieties of flip and then just clean it up and instance that library to all the different rain splashes. Take a look at this reference:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uelLd208eKs In realtime, you can barely tell that the splash from the rain is even a crown splash. Slow-mo though, you can definitely tell but even then, the actual "crown" only lives for a brief instant. I don't know how far you have gotten with all of this but, this should start you off doing the particle method. I have only done the birthing part for you since I am unsure what you are going for in a final look. splash_start_RB.hipnc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well thanks for your help. I'll try this and than let you whether it is working or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbowden Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 You can get away with doing particles still but, if you are more comfortable with doing flip, you could create the flip library also. Good luck! -Rigel (apparently that is my name now) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moneitor Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 You can use flip as Cyril told you, you just need a few crown splashes from flip to create a library, and then use those already cached splashes in your setup, for example where a drop hits the ground you can instance your splash mesh, you can bring the normal from the collision geo and create an orient for your splashes out of that.
