Realtime fluid simulation

They just posted a new fluid simulation video at
http://airtightgames.com/currentproject.html
It will be cool to see this kind of stuff show up in games, like a gas tank spilling fluid all over the place and catching fire. Or a wall of water knocking enemies down.

That's cool! Can't wait for stuff like that to be useful features in games...

thing is, like air, fluid is very complex and it would be easier to have per pixel lighting with radiocity on a million polygon model than to realisticly calculate a bottle of water particle for particle.

looks good, i think i was more impressed by the bending metal demo. The fluid looks really hokey for the most part because of the shader they used, yes i realise it's a tech demo for physics but a different shader could help create the illusion a bit better

I can see the realtime fluid being used in H games... heh realtime bukkake!!

wow that's impressive, they should combine all those videos together into one event, and while i'm dreaming they should also give me a million dollars. the company sounds cool though Ed Fries and a bunch of people that made Crimson Skies, one of my favorite games, i hope the come up with something amazing....
