Eeer, for the unfolding, I'm just looking a way to do it overal. I started looking at the LW tut, but it was on my cell phone... I also looked at some method on Houdini which get me looking at some tuts, various tuts, very various... ... I builded some VEX grid of points, and now I have a fluid simulation running on my laptop ^^; ...Polygons are still not unfolding though haha !
