@Fluid type
Choose between different types of fluid (gas, liquid, viscous, elastic).
193
@Material name
The name for the current fluid properties
160
@Resolution
Control the number of particles emitted. Resolution=1 will create 1000 particles in a 1x1x1 m. square. Low resolution values can be used for previewing purposes, high values for production. The higher the resolution, the lower the weight of each particle.
161
@Density
The density of the current fluid (in Kg/m3). Use 1000 for water.
162
@Pressure
The pressure controls the force between near particles. A higher value increases the apparent volume of the fluid. Pressure=0.0 makes no volume at all (no fluid behavior). It is a very sensitive parameter and must be changed carefully.
163
@External pressure
The external pressure simulates the effect of an external atmosphere by adding external forces that comprises the fluid. This value avoids the expansion of the particles and makes a more compact fluid. External pressure is more useful for gases. Liquids don't need it.
168
@Temperature
The temperature only works for gases. The temperature increases the pressure of the gas and its expanding force.
169
@External temperature
It is the temperature of the atmosphere.
164
@Viscosity
The viscosity is a very important property of a fluid. It is a sort of drag force between near particles. Low viscosity is valid for water effects. Oil, lava, honey have a higher viscosity.
165
@Full viscosity
When this option is enabled the viscosity of the fluid is increased.
5131
@Maximum number of particles
Maximum number of particles allowed for this emitter.
159
@Link to node
Link the position, angles and scale to a parent node.
197
RGB color
240
@Node ID
The ID of the node is an unique number that identifies the node in the scene. Two nodes cannot have the same ID number.
238
@Transform particles
The existing particles are transformed when the position or orientation of the emitter changes.

@Mesh resolution
The resolution of the mesh. The higher the resolution, the smaller the size of the polygons in the mesh. Use the "preview" button to rebuild the mesh after the resolution is changed.
5226
@Number of vertices
Number of vertices of the mesh
5228
@Number of faces
Number of faces of the mesh
184
@Mesh filters
Different types of filters are available as a postprocess for creating a smoother mesh. "Standard" filter is the usual filter. "Sharp" is an agressive filter which creates nice sharp geometry.
185
@Filter steps
The number of steps performed by the mesh filter. Use more steps for a stronger effect.
5430
@Clipping box
The clipping box removes the parts of the mesh that are outside of this box. This is useful for removing parts of the mesh that are not useful, for instance, the bottom and side parts in a swimming pool.
5488
@Fit to object
Fit the clipping box to an object's bounding box.
5422
@Clipping object
The clipping object removes the parts of the mesh that are outside of this object. This is useful for removing parts of the mesh that are not useful, for instance, the bottom and side parts in a glass of water.
5425
@In/Out clipping
The clipping of the mesh takes place at different sides of the object (inside or outside) depending on this value.
224
@Camera clipping
This will perform a back face removal of the faces as seen from the camera. Only if the camera information is available.
5253
@Save UVW mapping information
Enables the UVW mapping information to be calculated and stored in the mesh files. If disabled, there will be no mapping information in the mesh files.
1484
@Reset UVW mapping
This button reset the UVW information
1482
@Load texture
Import a bitmap and apply it as a texture to visualize the UVW mapping.
5415
@Texture tiling
Enable tiling of the UVW mapping
5562
@Motion blur
Calculate and store motion blur (speed) information in the mesh files. If disabled, there will be no motion blur information in those files.
5421
@Optimize mesh
The mesh is optimized by adapting the size of the faces in the mesh. In rounded areas the faces are smaller than in flat areas. The optimized mesh contains less polygons and keeps the overall shape.
5539
@Iterations (optimize option)
The number of steps performed by the optimizing algorithm. More steps create a more optimised mesh.
5245
@Threshold (optimize option)
The optimization method takes place when the angle between faces reaches a limit. This is the threshold of the optimization method. A higher threshold will try to optimize more rounded parts of the mesh.
5425
@Enable maximum number of faces for optimization
If this option is enabled, the optimization works by limiting the number of faces in the mesh.
5247
@Number of faces for optimization
If this option is enabled, the optimization works by limiting the number of faces in the mesh.
5424
@Face subdivision
Enables the face subdivision feature. The faces can be subdivided if needed to improve the optimization.
5233
@Blending
The blending factor affect the shape of the mesh. Low blending value makes more rounded (blobby) meshes, even isolated bubbles. Higher blending values will create smoother meshes.
5237
@Radius
The mesh is built by assigning a radius to each particle in the fluid. Different radius will create different shapes.
5254
@Subtractive field
The subtractive field changes the way the particles create the mesh. The particles with substractive field will clip parts of the mesh, rather than creating news polygons around them. It is useful for creating bubbles. Mix two fluids and set substractive field for the particles that should create the bubbles.
5239
@Fractal noise
The mesh can be deformed by a fractal field (or noise). The shape will change according to the motion of the mesh.
5243
@Fractal amplitude
The strength of the fractal noise.
5246
@Fractal frequency
The frequency of the fractal noise. Increase the frequency to get small ripples. The mesh may need a high resolution to represent high frequencies.
5248
@Fractal octaves
Use more octaves to create a more complex fractal noise.
5241
@Drag noise
The fractal field is initially static, so the mesh gets the shape of the fractal depending on the position of the space. "Drag noise" will move the noise according with the motion of the mesh.
5342
@Collision distance
The particles will collide at a certain distance to the faces of the object. The collision distance should be set according with the scale of the object and the degree of accuracy required. Very small collision distances may produce slow perfomance.
5348
@Distance tolerance
It is a random variation of the collision distance (in percentage). Tolerance=0.25 means that the particles will collide at +/- 25% of the collision distance. It is recommened to avoid perfect layers of particles sticked to the walls of the recipients.
211
@Collision tolerance
It is a random variation of the collision. 0.5 means that there is a 50% of chances to collide or pass through.
239
@Collision side
Control the active side of the face that collides with the particles. Can be set to both, inward or outward.
5080
@Friction
It causes the particles to reduce the tangencial speed (along the surface of the face) when they hit the object. A low value of the friction (even 0.0) is recommended.
5343
@Elastic factor
It causes the particles to reduce the normal speed (perpendicular to the surface of the face) when they hit the object. A low value is recommended.
5341
@Sticky factor
Adherence between fluids and objects can be achieved with this parameter. Set it to get the particles slightly or strongly sticked to the walls. It is useful to simulate the typical effect of fluids sliding upside down.
5346
@Roughness
It is a random value that will affect the direction of the particles when they hit the object. It is useful to avoid a perfect (unreal) collision effect.
5083
@Temperature
The object can transmit temperature to the particles when they hit it. It is only useful for gases. A cold gas can be heated by an object and originate a convection effect. In the other hand, a cold object can take away energy (temperature) from the particles, reducing their motion.
5344
@Conductivity
This parameter controls how fast or slow the temperature is transmitted between the particles and the object.
5099
@Thin wall test
Check for faces between near particles. By default the particles interact without checking if there is any face in-between. This option will slow down the performance and is only needed if there are particles at both sides of a single face.
176
@Enable dynamics
Enable dynamic properties for the current object. By enabling dynamics the particles can displace and push the object. The object can also collide with other objects that have the dynamic property active.
177
@Dynamics property
If dynamics is off, the object will remain static and the collision with other objects will remain active. For example, the floor must have Dynamics=off.
178
@Collision primitive
There are different primitive of collision between objects available. The appropriate primitive should be chosen according with the geometry of the object. "Plane" is recommended for the floor and walls. "Cube" and "Sphere" for those respective shapes. "Convex" will calculate the convex hull of an object for collision. "Mesh" is the more general (and slow) collision primitive.
243
@Impulse
If impulse=on, the particles of an emitter linked to the object will add an impulse of strength [particle force] when they are launched. This is useful to make a rocket simulation.
221
@Particle force
The particles will transmit forces to the object at collision. This value controls the strength of that force.
1528
@Mass
The mass (in Kg.) of the object. A change in the mass will affect the behavior of the object under dynamic forces.
179
@Object friction
It is the friction of the object in the collision with other objects. The friction controls the tangencial speed of the objects when they collide.
180
@Elasticity
It is the elastic energy of the object in the collision with other objects. The elasticity controls the normal speed of the objects when they collide.
181
@Air friction
The air friction simulates a general friction with the atmosphere. It is useful to reduce the speed of the objects while they are moving.

@Save image sequence
A snapshot of the active graphic viewport can be saved to disk for each frame.
5103
@Image sequence
Set the name of the sequence for the images captured from the graphic viewport.
5105
@Frames per second (output)
The number of frames calculated per second. This option controls the number of files (particle and mesh data) exported per second of simulation. FPS should be the same in both RealFlow and the target 3D platform. In some situations, a higher FPS can be useful to obtain more files per second.
5133
@Maximum number of frames
The maximum number of frames to be calculated in RealFlow.
174
@Number of CPU (information)
Number of CPU available in the system
175
@Number of threads
Set the number of threads that RealFlow will use. Maximum perfomance is achieved when the number of threads match the number of CPU.
219
@Notification
A message is sent when the simulation has finished.
220
@Notification
The name of the computer to notify that the simulation has finished (see Notify parameter).
223
@Time step
Choose between two different ways for the simulator to calculate the time step: Adaptive (the time step will be automatically calculated as required) or Manual (set the number of substeps).
5436
@Minimum number of substeps
In Adaptive time step mode, a minimum number of substeps can be set. The simulator will AT LEAST perform that number of steps per frame. Increase this value to increase the accuracy.
5437
@Maximum number of substeps
In Adaptive time step mode, a maximum number of allowed substeps can be set. The simulator will perform AT MOST those steps. Reduce this value to increase the perfomance (accuracy may be lost).
IDC_SUBF
@Substeps
In Manual time step mode, a fixed number of sub-steps per frame will be performed.
40157
@Compression factor
The compression factor reduces the global bouncing effect that appears in some fluids. by increasing this factor the bouncing effect is reduced.
194
@Reset parameters
Reset the simulation parameters to their default values.
195
@Energy threshold
This is the lowest level of energy allowed for the objects. Objects with a energy below this value are considered to be static (they will stop their motion).
196
@Maximum static time
In some situations the energy of the object will be oscillating around the energy threshold (for example, a pendulum with a very low impulse). This parameter will control the maximum time allowed for an object in static situation (not moving).
5482
@Auto backup
When this option is enabled the project will be saved automatically every X minutes.
210
@Auto backup mode
Choose between minutes or frames for back-up options
5485
@Time interval in minutes for backup
The project will be saved every X minutes.
167
@Number of files for backup
This option controls the number of files created as backup.
5210
@Display at frame
When enabled, the simulator will refresh the graphic window only at the end of the frame; otherwise it will be refreshed everytime.
1537

Set the size of the buffer in Mb for the file write-read functions. Increasing the buffer will allow bigger files to be written and read faster.
200
Always use a destruction box (daemon) around the main area to avoid particles flying too far and causing memory overload.
198
Press F1 to display context help
199
Use "dumb" particles when you don't need fluids in your simulation. Dumb particles are very fast.
201
Reduce the number of polygons in the scene as much as possible. Use low detailed versions of your models for the simulation.
202
Use a low "resolution" value (few particles) while you are testing the scene. Increase the resolution for final tests. Notice that for good looking subtleties you will need enough particles.
203
Avoid complexity in objects, check for small gaps or holes where the particles could be stuck. Remove the "problematic" particles by stopping the simulator and killing them.
204
In order to obtain more volume increase the internal pressure. This parameter is sensitive so make small changes.
205
Decrease the "Max. substeps" (settings) to speed up the simulation. This can affect the accuracy and stability of the fluid.
206
Imported animations must have a physical coherence. Avoid collapse of objects or faces. Always keep a distance between near objects so they do not overlap. Avoid particle traps, they will cause many troubles.
207
When you are filling a glass or a pool previous to perform an animation, it is recommended to save the scene at the relaxed state. You can resume from that point for doing many different simulations.
212
It is recommended to avoid double-sided objects, especially for glasses or walls, since it will cause malfunctions in some features like mesh clipping or will decrease the perfomance speed.
215
Drag numeric values in the panels by right clicking and moving the mouse up-down.
216
Increase the compression parameter (options panel) to reduce undesired bouncing effects.
217
Double click on the labels of the numeric parameters to access the envelope window and create an interpolation curve.
