Hi,

Here's a simple fire/smoke test that I simulated in Houdini 15 and rendered in OctaneRender 3.0 alpha 1:

Thanks! The render time was about 1 hour using path tracing. Simulation time was about 15 min using OpenCL (plus 20 min for exporting to OpenVDB files, 31 GB in total).

You really, really need to redo this with alpha2, much better fire as alpha1 doesn't use the Temperature grid for the fire.
