it's not the source code of the solver and the engine! It's the source code of
the GUI (Naiad Studio) and the exporters (buddies), which have always been
avaiable

Wow, that looks impressive. So Naiad was basically an insane fluid solver
and mesher for Maya and Houdini? Looks fantastic...would love to have that
resolution and detail in ICE.

No, it is (was?) a stand-alone application with a gui called Naiad Studio.
There were plugins for data transfer between various 3D apps and renderers
and with a little effort you could send stuff back and forth between
Softimage. I'm sure an ICE integration would rock if you had a plugin

I think it is a good purchase as Autodesk is probably looking at Houdini which
has an integrated FLIP solver.

If that's what AD is going to do - suppress Softimage in favor of Maya,
even if SI is the superior host platform - that would be a good example
of some pretty lame product politics.
Anyway... we'll see.

It's really still anyone's game. I was JUST getting into Naiad when this
stuff happened and now I don't feel so bad because I was also using
Realflow and Houdini. If anything, it just a clear reminder that anything
can and will happen.
Now the field is open for some clever peeps to take

Hi Ben,
Is Naiad FLIP-based? I thought it was a new algorithm.

As long as i know, Naiad is some kind of Flip-Fluid-Based.
Got a little talk to one of Naiads-Presenters who said that Markus
Nordenstamm is pissed of Houdini becouse they are inspired by his
Naiad-Fluid-Algorythm
Yes, Houdini's FLIP solver is very similar to Naiad at a technological
level, but I am sure there are important details that differ between
the two implementations when it comes to speed and user interface.
