Getting your first RealFlow | Cinema 4D running is a matter of seconds. Here is an example scene:

• Create a "Sphere" emitter from the "RealFlow" menu – the associated "Fluid" container will be added and linked automatically.
• Go to Sphere > Emission and enter the following settings marked through blue dots:

Check "Fill Sphere" and change "Speed" to 0.

• Select the "Fluid" container and set Particles > Resolution to 100.

Increasing "Resolution" creates more particles and adds detail.

• Select the "Noise Field" daemon from the plugin menu to introduce a force.
• Change Noise Field > Noise Field > Strength to 50.

A lower "Strength" decreases the amount of turbulence.

• Hit "Play" in Cinema 4D's timeline control to simulate the scene.

If you are happy with the result, open the "Scene" object's "Cache" tab:

• Specify a "Cache Folder" and press "Cache Simulation".

Specify a cache folder (macOS or Windows) to save the particle Alembic files.

Now there are two options: 1) render the → particles as objects, e.g. spheres or 2) mesh the particles. Let's proceed with the second option:

• Create a "Mesher" object from the "RealFlow" menu and enter these values:

These settings create a rich and detailed mesh with a smooth surface.

Is the mesh Ok? If yes, open Scene > Cache again and click on "Cache Meshes" to save the mesh files.

Apply a material to the mesh and render with your favorite render engine.
