I have just started learning houdini and I am trying to create a fur/fluid interaction. I have a flip fluid influencing some wire guides which I have set the linear spring to 10000 and the linear damp to around 150. The wire guide themselves are not stretching but the fur is and I don't know why.

I am using the kangular attribute on the guides which is being driven by a colour map, so that the guides go limp when they are ‘wet’.

Here is a link to a video showing my problem. The first part is the wire guides and the second part is the fur:

Thanks that does the trick

Hi. I have found that the interaction between flip fluids and wires using the fluid force dop is behaving strangely; even when I use the FlipFluidWire.otl example file.

When the fluid collides with the wires, they stretch out erratically. I have attached a screenshot of what happens when using the above mentioned example file.

I am using the latest non-commercial release.
