Yeah, fluid sims are one of those holy grails of 3d physics (cloth, hair and fluid) we still have left to perfect. The workflow here, especially with figures, is a bit involved, if I want collisions. I would have to export a slice of the body I would want to collide, import into my sim, set that to collision, set the fluid objects, domain and other settings, and bake. The higher-resolution the water and collision objects, the more the CPU power and memory needed.

Is it worth it? Hell yeah it's worth it lol. It is cool stuff.

Was this done in Blender?

Yes, just playing around with the tutorial for liquids and got this, exported a good frame as an OBJ (after a smoothing modifier), and imported into Vue. I did a 1m cube and scaled that to the same Vue size. It works well, though if I were hitting one of the gals with a hose I would go all out and do some higher resolution simulations. I am still looking for that magic combination of sim resolution and smoothing modifier that doesn't look too faceted.

The interface is really the hardest part. Everything else is easy.

Thanks for the links, I've got it bookmarked now, Noob to Pro is exactly what I was looking for!
