A Blender addon providing a high-quality FLIP-based liquid fluid simulation engine, developed since 2016 and tightly integrated into Blender. The simulation engine is MIT-licensed while the addon code is GPL-licensed, with the full product sold on marketplaces.
Use cases
- simulate realistic liquid effects in Blender
- render high quality water and fluid animations
- create liquid splash and pour effects for 3D scenes
- run FLIP fluid simulations inside Blender
- add professional-grade fluid dynamics to Blender projects
When to choose
- you need high-quality liquid simulation tightly integrated with Blender
- you want a mature, actively developed fluid solver with commercial support
- you need cross-platform fluid simulation on Windows, macOS, or Linux
When to avoid
- you need fluid simulation outside of Blender
- you want a fully free full-featured tool without purchasing a license
- you need real-time or game-engine fluid physics rather than offline rendering
