Collapsing Fluid Domains

Support Particles and Physics Simulations
1

Blender 2.65 (64 bit) running on a PC with Vista Home Premium.

Fire up Blender, select the default cube and set it as a Fluid Domain. The cube instantly collapses into what appears to be a small, distorted, subdivided cube. What’s going on, is anyone else seeing this behaviour? This happens with both the official release and the latest SVN build (revision 35032). I’ve dug around in the Domain properties but can’t see what might be causing this, flipping the normals does nothing.

Is this a bug in 2.65 or am I missing something really obvious?

You may have baked a previous fluid sim and it’s picking that up. Change the fluid cache name or location in the fluid settings.

Thanks Richard
That did the trick. I hadn’t run any fluid sims for quite a while and an old cache was still being called. Now, if I can only remember what I was trying to do…
