Useful Tips
Here are some quick tips for your work with RealFlow | Cinema 4D.
...
- With identical names there is always a probability that simulation files are overwritten.
- You also might not be able to identify scene elements when a scene is reopened after a longer period of time.
Caching
Try to keep track of your cache files. The best way is to create a common folder where the Cinema 4D files are stored together with the simulation files. This also concerns naming (see above). The cache folder can be adjusted under the “Scene” tree's “Cache” tab.
RealFlow | Cinema 4D writes one particle file per "Fluid" container and frame, and one mesh file per "Mesher" container and frame. Both, the number and size of the files can grow quickly, so please make sure that you have enough free disk space available.
Simulation data are not saved with the Cinema 4D project file. If you close a file without caching all previously simulated data will be lost. The scene elements (emitters, daemons, etc.) will be kept, of course.
File Formats
RealFlow | Cinema 4D uses the RPC format (“RealFlow Particle Cache”) for its particle files. These files are fully compatible with RealFlow's standalone version, but also with the RealFlow RenderKit and the Connectivity Plugins. Both tools are available from your customer account on realflow.com.
