Hey Ian! Thx for the tutorial! Can you tell me about your computer setup, specifically your CPU? Around the 14:40 mark, you let the solver cook 240 frames, and it seems to take only a minute. For me, it takes around 30 minutes, and I suspect a CPU issue. I have an i9-12900K, which isn’t the best, but I’m convinced it should be faster than this. The load on never go above 50%. Any tips?

Haha I paused the video recording while it loaded so you don’t have to watch it cook. It took a while but not 30 min. I have a threadripper 7950x cpu. I really like threadrippers for Houdini work because they are multithreaded and can simulate stuff fast
