  • In order to use a Cascade Setup you must have a fluid which flows from one Simulator into another. For more information, see the Transferring fluid between Simulators using a Cascade Connection section on the Interactions Between Simulators page.
  • The simulators must be run sequentially and each one should be started only after the previous one has finished simulating. The Cascade Simulator parameter points to the previous simulator in the sequence.
  • For the Liquid Simulations to function correctly, you need to have the Velocity Grid Channel and all Particle Groups that are simulated in the Source Simulator exported to its cache files - otherwise the connection will not work properly.
  • If you intend to use any additional channels such as RGB, particle IDs or Ages, etc, they also need to be exported from the Source simulator's Output roll-out before running the current simulator

Adaptive Grid | adaptive  – Enables the adaptive grid option and determines which channel to use (see the Threshold parameter). The grid will then resize to fit the volume occupied by the selected channel. Only channel values above the Threshold will affect the adaptive grid. Note that only the Open Container Walls will expand and contract using the Adaptive Grid.

typeinfo

Either keep Adaptive Grid disabled or set the Container Walls: Y to Jammed Both when simulating Oceans. The Ocean Level parameter in the Rendering rollout depends on the vertical size of your simulator.

Adapt By Particles | adaptby – Specifies the particle system that will be used for the grid adaptation. More than one particle system can be used by using a comma to seprate the different systems. For example Liquid,Foam will resize the grid based on the liquid and the foam particle systems.

Threshold | gridThreshold – When Adaptive Grid is enabled, the grid expands when the content of a cell near the borders crosses this value. On the contrary, when No Smaller Than Initial Grid is disabled, the grid will contract when there are no cells with content above this value near the borders.
