  • To link the emitter to a different scene tree dragging the appropriate "Scene" node to this field 
  • Furthermore you have direct access to the selected "Scene" tree's → "Solver", → "Cache", and → "Display" tabs. For descriptions of these parameters follow the links.
Linked

...

To link the emitter to a "Fluid" node drag the appropriate "Fluid" node(s) to this field.

To learn more about how to link RealFlow scene elements and make them interact take a look at the → "Manual Linking" page with examples.

Emitter Type

Toggle the emitter's type with this drop-down menu. The following parameters and the viewport representation will be updated according to your selection. Bear in mind that type changes will change the emitter's and fluid's behaviour completely.

...

When the body's polygons are very small it might happen that you will not get any particle emission. To fix this, increase the "Fluid" container's → s "Resolution" to create more particles. You may need very high settings (> 100 or more).

...

Here the particles' initial speed is defined in metres per second. Higher values will generate more particles per frame. The number of emitted particles also depends on the fluid's → “Resolution“Resolution” settings. A value of 0.0 stops the emission of particles.

...

  • Particles are only created in areas with texture values (“Color”) greater than 0.
  • Texture tags and projection methods are not evaluated – the emitter uses UVWs only.
  • Cinema 4D's built-in procedural shaders (e.g. noise) are supported, and animation will be considered.
  • Read more under → "Materials Image and Object Emitters".
Creation Type

Choose, if you want to emit from the object's vertices or polygons. Cinema 4D's “Polygon Selection” tag is supported.
