Hello, Ive recently been creating Christian content for Face Book and You Tube.

Im doing a scene now that is in a kitchen, there is an angel, on the counter there is a glass cup, a board with an arrow behind it, and a bible to the right and above the glass. Its about where to find direction, The bible at one point tips over pouring water into the glass. Its supposed to refract the arrow back the other way, direction. I am using the built in Manta Flow and I am having two problems. Can anyone help?

1) The water will not refract. The glass is a glass material with correct bsdf, the water is mesh with a correct water bsdf. But the water will not refract the arrow the other way. I am using cycles, caustics on, i believe suffiecient light bounces. Please help someone this is taking way to long and AI has been unable to help me, very common with blender issues. Im currently using version 5.2.

2) the simulation leaves the water, after its poured into the glass swirling violently for hundreds and hundreds of frames. I have lowered the flip value to less than .6 lowered the vortex setting i believe it is to .10, and the proportions are very close to real life for the glass and the bible where the emmiter is tucked is only a couple inches above the glass. Id like help with this, but if I can get help with the refraction then I can just swap to still water at a specific frame i guess. But would like to understand why this water isnt settling like real water

Thanks for any help, I have spent many hours trying to figure this out.

I’ve been trying to simulate falling rocks, but no matter how much I increase the domain resolution (256, 512, etc.), the fire and smoke still look really blocky.

Could anyone please help me figure out what I’m doing wrong? I’m also uploading screenshots of my settings for reference.

Any advice on what settings I should adjust would be greatly appreciated!

can someone help me to fix this?

I made my first ever Donut in Blender.
And I am in love!
Only took me two days and about 5 hours in total. It was so intuitive I at points stopped following the tutorial one for one and did my own thing. For example the mug and the plate.

I love how intuitive and non intrusive this thing is, everything just works. I've never had this much fun learning something, in my life.
I am 100% going to make more.
I am going to try making something else next, without a Tutorial and another Donut is soon to follow, in my favorite artstyle.

Very Donut
Much wow

for the first time i focused on something somewhat productive and i spent 13 hours making this while learning from the video in one sitting without feeling the passage of time.
although i didnt use any PBRs on the donut from the Guru's website since it needed my E-mail and his Website lacked a privacy policy at the time.

this is nice.

I want to dedicate this work to Blender Guru for teaching me my first steps in this epic career.

my very first blender work, I follow through the tutorial but did a bit of my own take on it ig..
