Found an OpenSource GPU fluid simulator.

Seems very interesting. Check it out. Being open source maybe some savy SI coders implement the simulator. In any case:

Awesome. I'm (navier) stoked about it. Really cool that it's open source.

There's some small mistakes in the sim where you have some floating particles ignoring gravity.

I hope they implement rigid body collisions soon, otherwise it's not very useful for us. But it is on the wishlist of the developer.
Unfortunately for AMD users it's CUDA only.

How is this very different than this?

For me, I think the simulator is not the big problem for us people in SI-world. It's not being able to render them out properly or with enough creative control. (like foam/small detail separated from main body of fluid)

cheers, Jasper
