The technology developed by Next Limit for the simulation of fluids, water surfaces, rigid bodies, soft bodies, fibers, and meshes is groundbreaking in that it is particle based. The elements of the simulation use physical properties to control their behavior and can interact with each other and react according to impulses, forces and accelerations.

Working in conjunction with the most popular 3D platforms, its core consists of an extremely realistic, physically based continuous-particle system and a new stacking rigid body solver. A team of physicists and dynamics engineers have been working on RealFlow for 8 years to bring this groundbreaking technology to the world of CG.
