You have no idea how annoying it is when you go to find solutions and they are paywalled. Thank you so much for your open contribution, I am very grateful for YOU! ❤❤
Basically this is the forerunner of LiquiGen!
Hey man, please continue that series with Niagara Fluids, maybe with the water shader? I tried fiddling with it a bit to be photorealistic with refraction and no blue tint and it looks decent, but I don't understand the shader of it really. Would love a tutorial from you!

Awesome. In under 5 mins you explained what I've been trying to understand for months. Thank you !!
TNice tutorials is much more simple than I thought with you explaining it. Currently half way through and I feel like I know everytNice tutorialng already lmao
Someone told me that i can use FLIP in blender. Now I'm glad that i can use FLIP in Unreal Engine. The patience is KEY!😂
I paused as you went along and did the steps myself and that helped a TON.
You r just aweso....i was litterly noob in tNice tutorials...u explained it very simply...thanks i will surely go for next parts of tNice tutorials video.. thanks
Yes excellent Tutorial. Please more details on the final sim you showed

Hey, thanks for this tutorial! I am at minute 15, and there is no option for spawn rate in the emitter summary of the secondary (foam) emitter. Any ideas on why this might be?
This video is amazing. I just found out about you last night and already watched all your videos. Your hilarious.
Unfortunately by 5.1 this tutorial is out of date... Grid3D_FLIP_Secondary_Emitter does not have any spawn rate options.

People getting hyped over fluid flux plugin but wow this is the real stuff.
Great tutorial thanks so much. I think there are a load of people pining for an accurate beach simulation with crashing waves on the shore. Not so much for real-time but for rendering out cinematics. Would you be up for something like that? Thanks for the great content!

Really helpful video! Liked and Subscribed. I have an issue, for some reason when i click Emitter Summary i dont get the same options like you for the foam, so i end up with almost no foam. Any suggestions?
makes complete sense. Only a couple other tNice tutorialngs I need to find out before I can actually make it work, but you’ve got more in depth
Great tutorial! Super easy to understand!
Thank you so much!!! It did work and took less than 5 minutes!
Please make a tutorial replicating the sample that you used as an example in the start of the video, using megascan assets together with the water effects etc.

Have any idea how I'd begin to setup a buoyancy system for the FLIP Pool? I have a ball that has collision with it but doesn't slow down or float like I want it to.
will be a fantastic journey!
A perfectly made tutorial.
This method works perfectly .. thanks for sharing ;)
Nice tutorial bro, keep it up :)
I really don't understand why for the foam part of the tutorial i don't have the "spawn rate" in Emitter Summary. Couldn't even find it at the customisation of Entity Summary ( no idea how it works though ). Maybe it's different in 5.3 ?
This was very helpful, however, my issue is when I drop it into my level using landscapes it will not render. The icon appears and I can edit it but no FX.

Hello About possibility of Niagara We can change particle inside Niagara for: - plane, sphere and so on. Why there is no possibility to set a simple light sourse as a niagara particle? I don't kno how or it will be in future? 1. May be to make some lifehack and to attach simple light sourse to niagara's particle using blueprint? 2. May be somebody can easily realize it in C++? 3. May be attach light sourse to nia' particle for lifespan and detatch later? What do you seriuosly think? Realizing this idea will help to create real flame illumination -wow!!!!

It's already possible to do this. Just use CPU particles and under renderer add a light renderer. Then it will attach light sources to the particles.

Hello, first of all thanks for this awesome tutorial, everything went well on my laptop except that when I put the niagara into my scene, the water looks black and I can't assign any material to it, is there any solution? thanks so much
i'm really shocked that the water plugin they were making noise about just got hard-dropped with no updates since release. you'd think making simple water surface interaction (no real "physics") would be easy, but it still isn't.
You think it would be possible to make the bounding box follow the shape of an ocean plane?
The liquid in my simulation is gradually disappearing, any idea why?
When I drag the Niagara system into the project, my foam material is black, Although the simulation has no problem, the foam is still white
Cool Tut! Can you express the water trapped in the ball?

Hey there. Great video on the basics of the FLIP system in UE5! I was wondering if you had any experience with the new Grid3D fluids and complex collision? My hunch is that these systems do not interact with any sort of complex collision, but I might be missing something I could be playing with inside the emitter. Would you happen to have any ideas on if complex collision would work with these systems?
Cool! - Can i use niagara emmiter as a light? - As if every niagara particle can lightens room? In order to get dynamic illumination - for example animated-torch-flame illumination
@renderbucket

If your using Unreal 5+ with Lumen, Lumen will automatically create light bounce from surfaces that have emissive or very bright values so yes you will get illumination from it. However adding additional lights parented to the objects can help give more practical/stronger lighting and the Lumen GI from the surface can add some more subtle bounce.
Thanks for your great Ideas
before I start this, is this easy or hard? like can a beginner do this well or do I need other experience first?

They restructured some stuff. Unfold the Secondary_emitter windows so you see everything. Then click on "Grid 3D Secondary Emission Points" its in the Category: "Find Secondary Emission Points". There are your Velocity and Vorticity parameters

Make sure its placed at 0,0,0 in worldspace. And see if it shows up when you toggle auto-activate on the fx system. If it then shows up its because if your placing it higher up in your world/scene you will have to increase the water height to match that elevation/height.

Hi @renderbucket, thank you for your work! I wanted to share a solution to a problem I encountered. I increased the water height to 22000 (as my point is above this value). But it almost ruins my perfomance :( Also, I used the ‘Compile’ and ‘Full Rebuild’ functions, which can be found under the three dots next to the ‘Compile’ button. But I hope this helps others.

How do u put the channel rack in the playlist
Trying to achieve basically just a hose rather than having a pre-existing pool. If I have the Grid 3D FLIP Hose template, and set the Water Height to 0, in the viewport of the Niagara system this looks like I want it - it constantly emits the particles, and slowly fills the boundary. However when I put this in my Scene and play it, the entire boundary is filled up by default. Can't seem to change this, any advice?
@LeoGB

I got it... I needed to change the "Water Height" parameter to be below the Z level my simulation was at... I had been assuming the "Water Height" was relative to the boundary box, but after hours of hair-pulling, would seem it's relative to the world. I just happened to be working at Z:-16000, so it took ages to notice this.
Can you use this for like a lake and river scene in a game??

Possibly, but for lakes, rivers, oceans, and other custom larger water bodies this may also be a better approach if you need it to run fast. kzread.info/dash/bejne/qZqCq6ekeLbMntY.html
Another Q if anyone can help - adding collider tag works great to have the water/particles collide with a static mesh, but is there a way to have the water also affect the static mesh? E.g. If I put a block in the water, can I have it being moved around by the water? Or does anything that the particles actually move have to also be within the Niagara system?

For some reason, when you place this system on your map, it only works in the very centre of your map and does not show up anywhere else. Super frustrating
@renderbucket

It should work no matter where you place it, it may look like its disappearing in the viewport but toggle the Auto Activate checkbox in it on and off and it should re-appear/recalculate. When you go into play mode it should also work, the only exception is if you move the Box/Container for the fluid Up or Down, you will have to adjust the Water Height parameter in the fluid since that's based on world space (height from 0 (grid origin)) units not local space. Its also odd how it behaves but make sure in your Grid3D_FLIP_FluidControl emitter Local Space is checked off, if that's on it will cause issues a lot of the time.
