First of all to every developer and everyone involved in the development in Octane 3 a huge THANK YOU!
I really appreciate the ongoing and thriving development of octane!

I´m sure I will spend endless hours playing around with Octane.

Here´s a small pic that I created as a result of a test :-)
Wolume_Obstacle_01.jpg

While I really enjoy the new release there are a couple of questions that arose during the "playtime".

1: Is is possible to add variance e.g. Noise to volumes. I tried to add Procedurals as different noises without success. (Connected them to the scattering port)

2: Is it possible to convert an geometry to a volume inside Octane. That would be really useful as you could for example model a cloud and then fill it with participating media.

Especially both of those features would make sense. So you model a cloud and then fill it with "volume". TO make it look more natural you then could add some variance using noise.
Would be nice to hear if this is a planned feature or if you are concetrating on integrating Open VDB only. Or maybe I did something wrong and it is possible already.

If this is not the right place for this post please advice me to the right location :-)

Thanks!

I have two questions (maybe they have been asked already but I couldn't find the answers in the thread):

- Can you use Octane 3 next to Octane 2 Installation. Will the 3DSMax plugin still work?

- Is the 3DSMax plugin available yet, and if not, when will it become available? Is it planned during the Alpha/Beta?

Is Houdini the only software able to generate VDB? Or can it be done in Maya/Max?

EDIT: Just found this

What was the "third party plugin for TurbulenceFD" that converts to open VDB files?
I am using Lightwave version of the TurbulenceFD.

Thanks.
