Glu3D is a complete plug-in system that makes easy animating liquids in Maya. Glu3D uses particles to simulate the liquid behavior, and a multi-resolution polygonal surface is also generated to display the liquid surface.
Its main features are:
- Particle based dynamic engine that automatically animates liquids that interact with surrounding geometry
- Triangle mesh surface sequence is generated to visualize liquid surface
- Fully integrated in Alias-Maya environment in order to simplify production workflow
- File cache system to store pre-calculated dynamics results
- Fill objects function to speed up scene initial condition setup
