RealFlow Tutorials by skram
These are for RealFlow 3, but are still quite valid for learning RF4 although aspects of the user interface and workflow have changed, but the concepts and loose workflow are essentially the same. As Python scripting was not a part of RealFlow 3, you'll find absolutely nothing about scripting in these tutorials. For that, check out the RealFlow 4 user guide's scripting section (which I wrote) available for free download from the Next Limit website.
This whisky pour tutorial is an old classic that addresses many of the basic concepts and can get a beginner or intermediate user going fast:
Now here's a little jewel for users who are a bit more experienced with the package. It's a 2-part tutorial designed as the 5th of the project-based tutorials for Next Limit, but time ran out on getting it fully revised so it never made it to the public eye (for the first 4 tutorials that did make it out, check on the Next Limit site here). In the below tutorials, in part 1 I go thru setting up a "real" billiards game shot where all the motions are driven by physics within RealFlow (again, version 3). In part 2, I put in a pint of beer and knock it over with the shot. Once set up, you can play a virtual game of billiards, with beer and everything. Cool.... But please, go out and play in a real bar, k?
Please note that there may be some minor typos and errors as these never got their final level of revision, try not to let it bug you.
