Where is the RealFlow RenderKit RFRK?
We have discontinued the development of the RFRK as of January 1., 2017 and the package is no longer available.
Are there plugins for Modo, Clarisse, Blender...?
These applications provide support for Alembic and – at least partially – OpenVDB files. By switching the output formats of RealFlow meshes, particles, and objects to Alembic you will be able to create a complete pipeline for most 3D porgrams.
