[lassinger]

Hi there,

for example:
if i have the Cloud-Kit (http://www.thinkparticle.com/product/th ... cloud-kit/), how i load a .vdb-File and how make it visible..?


Thank You!

Just load it via the Volume fog object.

Then play with import unit, medium density, and reduce the volume step length in the kernel settings.

mmmh... so success...
is the kind of kernel important..?

I have downloaded the latest Beta version and do not see an option to adjust "Volume Step Length"...

Has this feature been renamed or moved?

Thanks in advance.

We've moved the volume step length to the volume node, so that you can have different step lengths for different volumes

In the medium tab, unfold the Volume Medium Node to see it.

sometimes changing to units from meters to decameters can help to make it visible in the first place.then you can move onto adjusting the volume parameters.

yes, I had to put unity in hectometer to see something...

but after few ajustments, it's very nice
