Re: emPolygonizer - metaballs for SOFTIMAGE
just wondering, are you using marching cubes or tetrahedrons for the isosurface generation? also to speed it up maybe you could do the equivalent of an edge detection filter in 3D so you only process the cubes or tetrahedrons that are around the surface?

Re: upcoming: emPolygonizer - metaballs for SOFTIMAGE
yeah, the ICE sph right now uses the two density kernels stuff to give it the surface tension effects and try to prevent the usual particle clustering in sph. so i'm thinking that by using the same kernels you should be able to get the mesher to see the particles as the simulator sees it.

Re: upcoming: emPolygonizer - metaballs for SOFTIMAGE
this is looking good! will it be supporting things other than spheres, like ellipsoids and stuff? also will it support things like "relax" and "smooth" in realflow? also, i think this might be a good read: http://multires.caltech.edu/pubs/meshextraction.pdf also, the current impl...
