Am I doing something incorrectly here? I have a scene with a few VDB loaders in, referencing a VDB within the project folder structure. Everytime I close the c4d file and the go back to it, the VDBs arent linked correctly, that is to say they arent referencing the file correctly (it loads an IES file for what ever reason) as Im using many different VDBs, its very time consuming re doing the links. Is there a button im missing that saves the links or something? Do the VDBs need to have a specific path?

Thank you in advance

What kind of operation you means here? "referencing a VDB within the project folder structure"

Hi, thank you for reply,

I just meant its saved near the c4d file, like you would a texture in a tex folder. Ive attached an example of the path within the VDB object.
I also attached the path as it looks when i re open a project. It trys to load from a c4d database i think, but dont know why.

Thanks for the assistance, and all the greta work you do!
Cheers

In addition to the above..
There is an octane light in the scene using an IES file, the one that is also being loaded into the VDB loader.
