Learn From a Variety of New Setups Covering Every Major tyFlow Feature:
VDBs, Actors, Custom Properties, tyMesher, tySlicer, Cloth Sims, Tearing, Inflation, Phoenix FD everything, Particle Binds, …it’s all here.
All of the below examples were created to cover as wide a spectrum of skills as possible.
- Cloth Peeling (loosely inspired by Asus Laptop Ads)
- Use textures to control particle behavior, color by custom properties (inspired by Samsung OLED TV commercial)
- Create this popular effect of soft bodies inflating as the sneaker hits ground (Inspired by Adidas Cloud Foam ads)
- Particles Generated & Influenced by Phoenix FD Simulations (inspired by Samsung Galaxy S21 Launch Trailer)
- VDB grow / subtract / fill / cut volumes with particles
- Create strings between objects with particle binds
- tyflow particle binds cuda cloth - CUDA particle binds – create thousands of strands of hair / fur and influence with forces, color with a gradient map
- tyflow growth - Organic Growth – fills objects and is colored by age with custom properties
- tyflow explosion - Activate & affect ragdolls with Phoenix forces (e.g. blow away with explosion)
- tyflow ropes actors helicopter - Combine multiple Biped Animations (meaning they can run, jump, then turn into ragdolls & get attached to a rope). And yes, I’ll show you how to do the lighting & rendering too instead of leaving you at a clay viewport preview
- tyflow tyactors - Turn actors into cloth or PhysX objects / Inflate or destroy them
- tyflow crowd simulation - Turn animated actors into PhysX ragdolls, triggered by other events in the scene (such as a truck wiping them out)
- tyflow balloons - Confidently use Set Target, Link to Target, & many other operators to connect actors together with ropes, then attach cuda cloth balloons to those ropes. A funny yet effective exercise in understanding tyFlow on a deeper level.
- tyflow tyactors crowd simulation - Combine several character animations and trigger them by conditions (they jump if there’s an obstacle then transition back to running etc. ) Blend between animations for smooth transitions.
- Create a crowd of zombies climbing up a tower. They turn into ragdolls upon reaching the top & fall back down, hitting their fellow zombie friends along the way. Bind Pose Matching makes them move around even after they hit the ground.
- tyflow phoenix fd liquid color by speed - Liquid color by velocity with Phoenix & tyFlow
- tyflow hang object ropes - Hang objects on ropes, generate binds between surfaces, cut ropes with tySlicer
- tyflow explosion voxels - Use Phoenix FD sim data to color tyFlow particles.
- tyflow reveal 3ds max - Detailed object reveals
- tyflow cloth tearing - Phoenix FD Cloth tearing
- tyflow set target balloons vdb packing - Use the VDB Sphere packing feature, Set target & connect with strings
- tyflow particle physics texture - Use textures to control the look and behavior of particles
- tyflow particles custom properties - Particle physics, scale & color based on conditions
- Cloth Splitting
- Metal net / cuda cloth
…and so much more
WHO IS THIS FOR?
- you have a basic knowledge of tyFlow (perhaps you’ve taken the Basecamp) and want to go deeper
- you’re a 3D artist looking to redefine your skillset & attract better projects / premium clients
- you’re fascinated by 3D simulations & you’re ready to have a blast making cool stuff
- you want to stand out on social media with #satisfying simulations
- you want to speed up the learning process & take the shortcut to actual results
