Maya for 3D Printing - Rapid Prototyping
In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

3djoe: Thanks. I'm not 100% happy with it though yet. There's just so many variables affecting everything
ereitz: Yes, I used some principles from the book...

The second one seems to linger in the lower left of the screen to much.
It would depend though on the scene
just my 2 cents

Still experimenting with different techniques. This is supposed to be the baseFoam that will float on the sea surface. The actual crestMist will be emitted from these particles.

It also looks like it's emitting from one point on the crest (like smoke coming from a cigarette or something) but in a real storm, wouldn't the spray be blowing from the entire surface....crests and trough. Perfect storm has been on all weekend...I should've take a closer look.

The crestMist is emitted from the baseFoam with an initial upward velocity. From there the wind takes over and blows it away. Changing the wind direction would have an effect on the looks. I'll do some more tests. I'm still trying to find out a better method to control which of the waves gets the mist treatment.KB: Continues to look killer! I'm wondering, though....shouldn't the crest spray blow towards the positive z-axis also? It seemed like the spread of the mist wasn't covering all the waves. Like it wasn't blowing from the dark, frontmost wave, only a thin stream above the waves in the back. Maybe it's just the perspective of the render?
It can't all be particles. It would kill my pcIt also looks like it's emitting from one point on the crest (like smoke coming from a cigarette or something) but in a real storm, wouldn't the spray be blowing from the entire surface....crests and trough. Perfect storm has been on all weekend...I should've take a closer look.
. The size of the particle disk cache for that shot was about 1.7GB. I had one run which generated over 13GB disk cache. Maya wasn't very interactive after that 
. Maybe I could split the different types of foam and mist in different scenes and composite afterwards. But first I want to fine tune what I already have. It's like controlling chaos .Thanks for the comments though. I got some new ideas to try

Oh, almost forgot. I re-rendered the previous (particle) scene from different angle just to see what I would look like. Here it is:

I think I like the previous clip better. In this one, the spray looks good towards the end...the smaller choppy waves (turbulance) looks kind of strange at start in that perspective. One thing I thought of was how wicked the newer clip would look with a sand shader...would be cool for a desert sandstorm ala "The Mummy." Still looks awesome dude. Keep on it! Would love to check out your shader network at some point.
