Hello,

The fluid cache are a binary file and we're preparing a library that will allow reading
and writing to caches.

Same email address supp...@afterworks.com?
Or they are just not interested, but then they could at least write me that.

Hi Holger,

It's weird about the afterworks contact, I sent an email in march 2012 about the maya beta and they answered the same day.

Hi Everyone
 
I am currently updating my fluid shader for mentalRay and Arnold (probably VRay if the others are working).
 
To optimize the shading speed and caching, I am collecting a wide range of different kinds of fluid simulations. (To be more specific: I am collecting the cache files of the sim)
I just need ONE file of a simulation to test compressions/filter/speed.
Multiple files of the same simulation do not help as the fluid has a similat shape/size/values/color.
 
It should be something in production quality (not a tiny 20x20x20 fluid grid...)
 

Types of cache files:
- emFluid/.bafl
- Maya .mc
- blender .bphys
- openVBD
- field3D
- Phoenix .aur
- FumeFX ( Not yet supported as I am not able to get any contact via
supp...@afterworks.com. Tried 4 times in 2 years. Does someone know any other contact address?)
- Any fluid cache format I am missing?
 

If you happen to have a cache file:
- Create a text file with your (company) name.
- Zip the text file with the cache file(s).
- Upload it via a file hoster and send me the link
 
Files < 60MB:
If your file is less than 60MB, then you can use
www.BinaryAlchemy.de/upload_caches.php
(I am getting a new one for larger files, but right now I cannot change the limit.)
 

When I am finished, I will perhaps add all fluid tests to one large video sequence with one fluid/frame and stats like load/render time.
 
Many thanks
