Has anyone used obi fluid to make something similar to a fine powder, like baking soda or flour?

Hi there,
These materials are not actual fluids, they fall in the category of granular materials (like sand or gravel). While Obi can simulate them, the individual grains cannot be as small as flour's. Not even GPU-based engines have enough power to simulate these in realtime yet.
Your best bet would be to fake them using textured particles, as lots of games do.
