HyFLIP - Emitter

In order to create a fluid volume it is always necessary to attach an object to a HyFLIP emitter. You can use any object and tag it as a fluid source. This combination – emitter and object – defines the point of emission.

Working with Multiple Emitters

If you want to render different emitters separately you have to activate each emitter's export resources under:

Export Central > Hybrido Emitters

There, check the emitter nodes you want to export and RealFlow will write the particle data to the according files. These files can then be read by the → RealFlow RenderKit or the → connectivity plugins. If you activate the Alembic format you do not need any plugins:

• Do not uncheck or deactivate the → Hybrido domain's export resources under → "Export Central”. 
• The reason is that RealFlow does not recognize emitter files as cache files. 
• In other words: if you deactivate the domain's export you will not be able to play back or mesh the domain's fluid anymore. Your simulation data is actually lost and you have to re-simulate the scene.
• The individual emitter particle data cannot be loaded into RealFlow by default. The only method is to store this data as BIN files and reimport them with a → "NBinary Loader”.
