In this Chaos Phoenix & Vray tutorial in 3Ds Max, we're using a variety of forces (body force, vortex force, tySpaceWarp) to affect our liquid simulation into a tunnel shape. We're also using the particle tuner to kill the liquid & foam particles after some time and we're using wetmap particles to actually make the ground wet under the portal (full Phoenix Particle texture material setup for this is also covered). Additionally, I go over generating extra foam directly from the portal ring, adjusting particle shader settings for faster rendering of foam, and setting up caustics with Vray.
