Hello Paride,

I have to blend two liquids in a same phoenix fd simulation, how do I set up an octane material to do that ?

Thank you in advance !

Hi remka,
At the moment these seem to be possible solutions:

Hello Paride,

I've tried to do what you said in this topic but I didn't managed to make it work on Phoenix FD, I guess I'm a map channel noob :oops:

I know that it's time consuming for you as Phoenix FD is not a part of 3ds max but it is a really big industry standard now.

I'm thrilled by the work done on Octane and I'm using it for almost 10 years now and I won't see myself using another plugin but that said, we still don't have a correct workflow for wetmaps or liquid blending.

Hi remks,
It works with 3dsMax fluid not with Phoenix.

Yes I assumed that... so my question would be : is it in the development plans ?

Just in case someone needs this feature also, be aware that VRay GPU is not able to render a PhoenixFDGridTexture neither... everything has to go through the CPU.
