Really frustrating

What do you need help with, are you having trouble installing?
I'm a noob but I'll try to get you just shy of an electrical fire if I can.
Also, not sure if you downloaded and scoped out the example scenes from: http://docs.tyflow.com/download/
All sorts of nice setups with a Readme that explains what is going on with each flow, extremely helpful.

The car demo vid is on youtube showing the steps, and a gentleman was nice enough to share his file earlier today. http://forum.tyflow.com/thread-197.html
I shared my chain file.. nothing special, but it shows how to work around concave/convex mesh collision issues at least. http://forum.tyflow.com/thread-227.html
The sample files are very clear and simple to follow along with for the most part, and the FAQ/docs are pretty well written so far: http://docs.tyflow.com/
Ask any specific questions and Tyson gets back to you very quickly considering how busy he must be right now. There are also some on the forums here who help out when they can.

I am also frustrated, when trying to do some simple things, but I realized, that most of my frustration comes because of my ignorance.
To add to above suggestions:
Any Particle Flow tutorial will get you perfectly started with this (and you have a tone of PF tuts online), because it's the same logic.
Also, I saw your other thread where you asked how to break house with windows fracturing differently, and you don't even know Pflow?
Why don't you pick some simpler goal? Brake a chair.. or something...
I saw few guys here that I know they rock with effects, and still, they are just trying simple tests, so they understand plug-in perfectly. You want to try complex stuff before them?
Last (but not least), your tone sounds somewhat offensive and ignorant. If you know limitation of PFlow, you'd realize the potential of this plugin, but you don't.
And I am not writing all this because of you, but to be able to copy paste to any person that thinks that a (so far) free plugin is "frustrating", even that plugin is (imho) the best stuff that happened to 3DS Max last 10-15 years.
