Particle Flow - Quick Navigation

NEW in 3ds Max 2018: The AirFlow_Spline helper converts CFD Data to particle flow splines for airflow simulations.

NOTE: this class is not creatable in the 3ds Max ParticleFlow UI. It can only be created via MAXScript.

NOTE: The AirFlow* pflow classes in MAXScript are a prototype for CFD visualization. The recommended method is to use MCG. See "Visualizing CFD Data" in the 3ds Max User’s Guide.

Properties:

<AirFlow_Spline>.Data_Source_File     UndefinedClass    default: undefined   --  filename;

Gets or sets the data source FBX file.

<AirFlow_Spline>.Emit_Start     Integer    default: 0   --  integer; Emit_Time 
<AirFlow_Spline>.Emit_Stop     Integer    default: 4800   --  integer

Gets or sets the emit start and stop time.

<AirFlow_Spline>.Max_Speed     Float    default: 10000.0   --  animatable; worldUnits 
<AirFlow_Spline>.Min_Speed     Float    default: 0.0   --  animatable; worldUnits

Gets or sets the air flow minimum and maximum speed.

<AirFlow_Spline>.Rate     Float    default: 60.0   --  animatable; float

Gets or sets the emit rate.

<AirFlow_Spline>.Speed_Factor     Float    default: 0.01   --  animatable; float

Gets or sets the speed factor.

<AirFlow_Spline>.Splines     ArrayParameter    default: #()   --  node array; SubAnim

An array of splines imported from the data file.
