XP Liquid Pouring • Scene File + Explainer videos + Brand New Beer Pouring Scene File Added

XP Liquid Pouring is a Scene File purchase that comes with several streamlined summary videos to help explain the methods and techniques used to create the simulation. The videos are a great source of guidance to what is going on within the scene file build and xpSystem. This project was created in Cinema 4D 2023 using the latest XParticles build. It uses the new xpNexus GPU Fluid solver.

••Please note that the scene files are already built when downloaded and the explainer videos discuss in-depth the techniques of the XP System setups. The videos do not show the XP build from beginning to end but do contain all the valuable insights to why I'm using the methods that I do. Plus areas to watch out for and trouble shooting common problems.••

XP Beer Pouring • Scene File

System Requirements

The scene file you will download once purchased was created using the following software.
Maxon Cinema 4d 2023.1 • Redshift 3.5.10 • Insydium Fused (Build 1489) XParticles

••Please note you will need the Insydium Fused build for XParticles as this simulation uses the Nexus fluid solver.••

The scene file was only tested in Cinema 4D 2023. Older versions of Cinema 4D have not been tested and so may give different results to the simulation or potentially not work at all.

Beer Pouring - Scene file • BRAND NEW ADDITION

This new scene file addition explores a slightly different approach to the pouring simulation but is based closely to the methods and techniques discussed in the previous explainer videos. This time the beer simulation is created using the nxFluids PBD solver (instead of the SPH solver) and has a new way to keep the froth bubbles above the fluid surface. It also utilises a two step cache approach which allows for the main sim to be solved first and then use the new feature of generating nxFoam from an already cached simulation.

Justin is the person I turn to whenever I need advice or help with a simulation project. The Liquid Pour scene helped me grasp all the main features and settings in Xparticles and the Beer Pour just made it better. Can't give Justin a higher recommendation. Insane value!

The XP Liquid Pouring Scene file is seriously epic! It's clear they put a ton of R&D into this. The approach is methodical, and the video breakdown is super clear and well explained. Plus, it's production-ready and looks awesome. What a time-saver.

"The project was great to go through. I was able to view all videos and look through the project files in under a day, which is really helpful. For me it was a chance to see how some of the new Nexus solvers and settings work within your setup "
