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
[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>. 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
I found a list of file hoster here:

Files < 60MB:
If your file is less than 60MB, then you can use
www.BinaryAlchemy.de/upload_caches.php
<http://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
