How to Create Realistic Water with Chaos Corona
This tutorial shows you how to create pool, jacuzzi, and water effects in 3ds Max using Chaos Phoenix and render them with Corona Renderer. Learn to set up liquid sources, fine-tune simulations, and achieve photorealistic water dynamics.
In this video, you will learn how to:
- Set up and control liquid sources for various water features like jacuzzis, streams, and pools.
- Configure Chaos Phoenix simulators for optimal water dynamics, including adjusting voxel size, steps per frame, and container behavior.
- Generate realistic foam and splash mist effects.
- Combine multiple water simulations seamlessly using the Cascade Simulator.
- Apply the Corona Physical Material for water, including enabling advanced features like caustics for photorealism.
We’ll start with a simple scene and guide you through every step to create intricate water, ensuring your renders look as lifelike as possible.
