In this new course, taught by Arihant Gupta and part of our Houdini Fundamentals series, you will learn the concepts of creating step by step production-ready flip workflows. We’ll explore how breaking down flip to its bare minimum can simplify scenes to ultimately create complex looking fluid simulations. In addition, the course covers optimizing simulations using narrow banding and adaptivity and a look at the all-new whitewater system that was recently introduced. You will also create your very own wave tank to create ocean simulations and custom meshing workflows.
