I'm exporting from Blender a fire volume in Open VDB format. When imported into Octane 3.0 standalone I get some weird blocks which I can't find out how to get rid of. See image below...
Anyone got any ideas on whats going on?
Many Thanks
Andy

Just a guess - but are the various Blender resolution settings for the smoke domain high enough? The defaults export to octane somewhat blotchy (maybe they work better natively in Cycles).
FYI - I am very new to using VDB for smoke & fire sims but in my testing it seemed as if a default Houdini VDB export came into Octane with much better resolution than the Blender ones.

hi pegot,
I scaled up the domain and flow meshes - that seems to have fixed it. I know what you mean about blotchy but the more I play around the better the results I'm seeing. I'll post something up here when I've got to grips with it more.

Don't know about your program, but in x-particles, if you ramp up the particles per voxel, this problem goes away.
