Liquid/fluid text effect/animation tutorial

I am new to the site and not sure where to ask this. I am want to know hoe or if there is a video tutorial for creating text effect or animation with liquid/fluids? I am look to add some fluid dripping effect to a title like blood. I saw video of the same effect and wondering how they did it.

Thanks

you just have to change you objet into a fluid object and adjsut some of the parameters to make flow downward with gravity value

The text:
Shift+a then Click text

problen is this is an older version of fluid

Whoops, sorry didn’t actually look at the tut, just copied the link… :confused:


these seems to be more modern version

but this will change again soon with SHP
but we have to wait till we see what we get as new options

happy 2.5

What’s Shp?

it’s the next version for the fluid simulation in blender 2.6

I also for got mention that I very new to program and coming back to 3d animation, which back in the late 90’s. So am very rusty :). I am trying to create title of a short logo for a friend. Since I semi-new to the program how to change an object or the text into a fluid object?

convert the text to a mesh(3dview>object>convert to> mesh), go to the physics pannel tab(bouncing ball), add fluid, and adjust the settins if needed.
