sand/sugar simulation
This is the effect i wanted, sugar falling and forming a pile:

Re: sand/sugar simulation
Scripting is the only way to do this in realflow, unfortunately I cant help you there.

Re: sand/sugar simulation
Maybe one way would be to freeze the particles when they collide with the surface.
Freeze-script:
http://resources.realflow.com/search.ph ... rch=freeze
The particles would then rather display the behavior of heavy snow, not sand, but also in the posted youtube video
there is not much rolling motion of the single particles.

Re: sand/sugar simulation
In fact, these videos are created by me. What do you think about the effect?
@christianz: the effect you are talking is present but not for a very long time, i wanted the pile to be high.

Re: sand/sugar simulation
I think it is good in a setup like now, the sugar forming a solid pile, at some distance to the camera. If the camera moves closer, it would look more realistic if the grains rolled a little more on the surface and the tip of the pile may collapse under its own weight.

Re: sand/sugar simulation
So, how did you do it?
