Hi! Im working on a fireplace scene where flames raise from a group of logs. Im using PyroFX as the solver and also the Pyro shader included in Houdini.
At the moment im having trouble getting the right shape for the flame, i want it more “swirly” but i always get a pretty straight flame.
I`ve done many pre tests, and here is part of the WIP
Tests:
01 - http://vimeo.com/30167942 [vimeo.com]
02 - http://vimeo.com/30273837 [vimeo.com]
03 - http://vimeo.com/30314817 [vimeo.com]
04 - http://vimeo.com/30405207 [vimeo.com]

New test with less divisions (120) and more speed and turbulence

Coo! I like the evolution but I prefer the color scheme on the initial tests. Somehow the reds look over saturated to me.

Hi,
Yes, I think the scale is a bit off too..
The other thing is those flying particles, I think they are too slow, maybe you should try advecting them with the fire. I'm not exactly sure of how that works in pyro, but shouldn't be that complicated. Also they should start bright and fade out as they burn, what you think?
Cheers

Yeah, thats right, tonight ill let the sim and render to finish with some new tweaks to fix the scale thing.
Those particles are really raw. I added for the tests but i didnt work on them already. Yes, the idea is once i have the final fluid, ill advect them, and some of the will “explode” just like the wood hot particles do.
So, looking forward to what ill see in the morning

I really like the final result.
May i suggest some fire-glowy cavities on the wood just to give it a sense that its really on fire, I think it will increase the level of realism even more. Either way, top notch work.
