Free 3ds Max Fluids Wave Rig Scene: Bifrost Liquid + Arnold

Free 3ds Max Fluids Wave Rig Scene: Bifrost Liquid + Arnold
Preview from the original source by Chris Ferriola (3-D Art LLC, YouTube)

Overview

A native 3ds Max Fluids test scene shared by Chris Ferriola of 3-D Art LLC on YouTube. It contains a full wave rig in which the liquid simulation is generated from a guide mesh using the built-in Bifrost-based Fluids feature, with the result rendered in Arnold, so no third-party simulation plugin is needed.

The project is a single .max file of roughly 0.8 MB, offered as a free direct download from Dropbox via the video description; the Fluids feature requires 3ds Max 2018 or newer. A handy example for anyone wanting to try liquid simulation without leaving 3ds Max.
