由Digital Tutors 公司出品的Digital Tutors Using the RealFlow RenderKit in Maya教程，在MAYA中使用Realflow渲染工具教程。

教程所使用的软件：Maya 2010 and higher, RealFlow 5 and higher

在本系列教学中，我们将学习使用MAYA中的Realflow渲染工具。

Realflow渲染工具是一个非常强大的工具集，使用它我们能够直接在主流3D软件中渲染realflow粒子数据。使用它我们还能控制被渲染粒子的尺寸与形状，还能增加与减少被渲染粒子的数量。使用它我们还能实时在粒子周围生成MESH，这样我们就不必在REALFLOW中来进行MESH操作了。在本教学中我们还将学习如何将REALFLOW的粒子渲染为体积云，还有如何导入Realflow的置换贴图来渲染。

Lesson Outline (16 lessons)

In this series of lessons, we will learn how the RealFlow RenderKit can be used inside of Maya.

The RealFlow RenderKit is an extremely powerful set of tools for rendering RealFlow particle data directly within our primary 3D application. With the RealFlow RenderKit, we have the ability to control the size and shape of our rendered particles, we can increase or decrease the number of particles that are rendered, and we can also shade our particles based on RealFlow magnitude data. Using the RealFlow RenderKit, we can also generate meshes around our particles at render time, eliminating the need to mesh our particles inside of RealFlow. During this course, we will also discuss how RealFlow particles can be rendered as volumetric clouds, as well as learning how to import RealFlow displacement map sequences into maya for Rendering.
