Now that we have decent mesh/spline import, next would be gaseous and particle solutions...

www.openvdb.org/

Seems like the future of Volumetrics...

OTOY have done a great job already with alembic and ORBX - Would openVDB be the best format for OTOY to integrate next? What other solutions are there for transferring this type of particle data efficiently and wide spread?

Thoughts?

Cheers.

It's a good feature; we have to get through the 2.x roadmap first.
