Using Tyflow as an emitter in Phoenix FD? - radcliffe.chris - 05-01-2019
Is it possible for example to emit Phoenix smoke from a fractured shape in Tyflow? Somehow make the inner faces of the fracture selectable to add as an emitter in a Phoenix source?
Or just export an alembic of final objects and start from there with fluid dynamics?

PhoenixFD doesn't seem to have an 'emit from selected faces' or 'emit from face with matID of XYZ' setting that I can see...perhaps ask on the ChaosGroup forum if it's possible. If it is, then just set a matID or choose select faces in the Voronoi cap options and go from there. You'll need a Mesh operator with 'render only' off in your event(s) as well.
