HM - Mesh: OpenVDB

This is the place for the mesh’s fundamental settings. They directly influence the way the polygons are created around the particle cloud.

 

 

Auto polygon size

With “Yes”, RealFlow automatically adjusts the polygon size to get the best balance between quality and number of faces.

@ polygon size

Smaller values take longer to calculate, lead to larger mesh files, but also more detail. A good starting value is around 0.02. The corresponding → “Radius” value must be at least: Radius = Polygon size * 1.5. Meshes will be created very fast when "@ polygon size" and "@ particle radius" are equal.

Auto particle radius

With “Yes”, RealFlow automatically adjusts the radius to get the best balance between quality and meshing speed.

@ particle radius

The mesh engine draws a sphere around every particle and extracts the mesh's surface from this structure. The radius of these spheres is defined here. The minimum value is: Radius = Polygon size * 1.5. Meshes will be created very fast when "@ polygon size" and "@ particle radius" are equal.
