good stuff.  Naturally the program is a bit harder to use than it would seem, but still very cool.  I was messing around with it for about 5 minutes and it crashed unfortunately.

How are you supposed to make the circles turn on their own like a gear?

How completely awesome.  That looks like a lot of fun.

Interesting sidenote,  Umeå is the hometown of my favorite band.  The place isn't very big as I understand it, but apparently the university has a nice website.

1) Fucking awesome song.

2) Fucking awesome program.  I feel like I could spend hours playing with it.

Wow, I cant stop messing around with it.

Only two problems so far: Whenever I try to liquefy something the program runs at about 1fps. Also, when I exited the program it completely phucked my computer. Other than that, good stuff.

Try zooming in more so objects are smaller. Otherwise, you're making really big things and when you liquefy them your computer has to deal with lots more droplets than it probably should.

It is kinda addictive!

Yeah, zoom in real close and work with smaller objects, it'll improve performance. Also check "Simple Water."

I tried making a little cardboard town (just a buncha boxes and stuff with really low weight), then I created a giant moon overhead.. I liquified it.. framerate clogged.. Town was flooded though :P

I'm still figuring out the little bits like making a wheel or cog turn.
