Very nice! I like it a lot!

Addition of the Maxwell Render "De-Noiser" to RF (the Maxwell "Light" that is built into RF), and major fixes to Alembic. This pretty much sums up the changes to RF in Version .5. I use Maxwell Render, and Alembic to get back and forth to Maya these days. I must say that there ar...

The Curveture/Cohesion I didn't understand at first is an improvement to the way Surface Tension is calculated in the Surface Tension Deamon. That is, it is an improvement to the algorithem(s) that allows for more accurate tensioning of the liquid. For the Surface Tension Daemon, there are now two o...

ChristianZ, thank you very much for posting the release notes for the new version is a way we all can access and read them!!!!!

OldCode, the Macro Daemon is very much like the Sheeter Deamon. That is, you first make a simulation of something, maybe a small drop of water falling from a leaf, and you "add" the Macro Daemon to the sim to refine the effect - basically the surface tension and the way the trailing tendri...

Oh, and the fixes to Alembic functions are great, too!

Good Job, Folks!

OK, this looks really, really good! Essentially, three new features. Catalysee has an outstanding video on the RF website that demonstrates and explains the new ability to create that thicker lip/rim on crown splashes. This is a "must see" video for most of us. This new "Macro Daemon&...

Thank you! (For the expression post).

Good! I'm glad this is working for you. If you have an expression you find works well for this purpose, please consider posting it here. Kind of a "thank you" for the help people attempt to provide. The reason I like the double Filter mechanism, is that it is particularly easy to make adju...

When I have this kind of problem, I create two filter deamons. One for moving the original particles to the second domain, and one for moving the particles in the second domain back to the first domain. I focus on the "Random" setting in each filter, and adjust the Random values in each fi...
