vbd issues

hi - is there a trick to exporting the orbx file from standalone so that the vdb loads in modo at the origin and oriented/scaled at more "normal" values? right now I can get the vbd to look and work properly but its taking me forever to scale, rotate, and position it. I tried adding the proxy to a plane but they all seem to be massive and nowhere near the origin.

Hi - I think this has already been answered in the Slack group. But for reference, do not add a Placement node to the proxy ORBX, as it results in Octane not rendering the VDB. Instead, transform the host Mesh Item in Modo.

Thanks
