It's beautiful! When can I play?

Had to convert it though... My codec said it was 59.941 fps DivX.

Very nice! Unlike others played perfectly here.

That looks really cool. How long did it take to render?

All the best

Fidel.

Looks good, of course with that complicated movements the interaction of
the cloth with the air would be much more complicated in fact, it's
probably just simple drag right now.

I'm glad you liked it. Actually it IS 59.941 fps... DivX...

I wanted it to have a higher framerate. I don't think that should cause any
problem, or it does?

Thanks,

Fernando.

I can't remember how much time this animation took... but tipically I'm
getting less than 5 seconds for the creation of the mesh and another 5
seconds for the rendering (for each frame)

Now, I'm adding more detail and textures to the scene, and now it's much
slower the rendering than the simulation :)

I'm happy that you liked it :)

Fernando.

My machine is just not capable of playing back that
rate. Had to cut it down, othrwise it drops frames.
Watched it in slo-mo.

Yes, in fact this is very simplistic model of air interaction... the air is
not really modelled as matter but a vector field... it is just a flow which
modifies its surroundings. Anyway, it gives somewhat good results, and it is
MUCH faster than any other realistic model.

Thanks for your comments!

Fernando.

As I had posted before, I'm made several experiments, each one with varying
complexity... sometimes I use a finer mesh, sometimes I use smaller time
stepsizes... I can't recall the exact timings of this particular example.

Besides, I coded the simulation in C, because it would be unbearably slow in
POV code, and also in this case it is easier to generalize the code... In
theory I should be able to have cloths in several shapes...

My guess is that for this example the simulation (generation of the mesh)
took about 5 seconds and probably much less for the rendering.

Thanks for your comments!

Fernando.
