Hi.
Is is possible to make some "point cloud" preview in viewport of Octane volume (VDB files) like in FumeFX for example. Now it is difficult to work, when you dont see where volume is.

Thank you.

Hi,

VBD is still being improved and refined as we speak. This feature should be supported by the time Octane 3 reaches it's commercial release (hopefully before then).

Cheers,
Azen

Any progress on this? I'm playing with volumes without additional plugins and don't see anything in the viewport.

I hope we get this soon. It’s a critical feature to working with vdbs.
