Houdini Ocean Beach FX Simulation Package – Long Shot

Houdini Beach FX Simulation Package – High-Resolution Coastline Setup

This package includes a fully-simulated high-quality beach & shoreline setup created inside Houdini.
The scene contains two FLIP simulations:

• Low-resolution ocean body (particle separation: 0.05) with a large bounding box.
• High-resolution shoreline simulation (particle separation: 0.03) for detailed interaction at the beach edges.

Both simulations are seamlessly merged/attached without visible borders.
A special technique has been used to remove the common grainy flickering on the shoreline surface.

✔ FLIP Simulation (Ocean + Shoreline)
✔ Whitewater Simulation
✔ Wetmap Generation
✔ Continued infinite ocean (extend the sea as far as you want)
✔ Karma CPU Render Setup
✔ Layered AOV render exported and composited in Nuke
✔ Included Nuke file + sample final frame

System Requirements & Simulation Notes

• Cache size: ~1 TB required
• My system has 64 GB RAM, but buyers with higher RAM can increase quality further (lower particle separation).
• GPU used: RTX 3060 Ti (not required for simulation, optional for viewport)

What’s Included

• Houdini project file (.hip)
• FLIP cache setup (node structure)
• Whitewater setup
• Wetmap generation
• Karma render network
• Nuke composite file
• Final rendered frame (for reference)

This project is ideal for FX artists, students, cinematic environment creators, and anyone looking for a production-ready ocean & beach interaction setup.
