Bifrost 2017 2016 differences

[Anonymous]

Hi, I'm trying to follow Igor bifrost tutorials and I have problems getting nice ocean waves from the tutorials. I get far better results with Maya 2016, then Maya 2017 (SP2). I tried to make all Maya 2017 Bifrost settings the same as 2016 but still get huge differences. I'm using the same scene for both Maya's. The waves in 2016 feel like a ocean and in Maya 2017 it feels more like a fast streaming river. In Maya 2017 the liquid is less attracted to the guide waves. Any settings I could have missed? Are there more people having problems with making nice ocean waves in 2017?

This is most likely due to the fact that Bifrost has had several changes made in the Maya 2017 version. If the tutorial was for Maya 2016 it would work best for that version.  I would suggest trying to use the new BOSS system for Bifrost in Maya 2017.  Your workflow will be different.  I wish you the best of luck.
