OK got my first idea to try, thinking of a Log Flume ride, or at least the big drop..

Forgot to say, I'm using LW8.5 and the 3D Workd version of Realflow..

Been having a play with RF, getting used to it mainly.. Thought I better post something of what I'm doing, so here it is so far - 300kb.. This was a test on transfering animations from LW to RF to LW, and obviously the animation will be better, and the water will start in the track rather than appear from no-where in the final version...

OK here's the first part.. The flume track..

Looking nice. Will the log be dynamics driven or keyframed?

Cheers Shaun, I think for ease I'll do the animation by hand in LW..

IÂ´m looking forward to your approach nurnie master and fellow viper modelling colleague and IÂ´m curious how you realize the interaction between the animated objects and the simulated particles.

It never works the way I want when I use animated objects interacting with lots of water...
For example a simple animated bottle dropping into a tank..
I never get the nice splash crown IÂ´m after if itÂ´s not dynamic driven

this only works when using a particle sphere in conjunction to fake the splash...(and it doesnÂ´t work to good)
