Using boolean tool with volume objects & native geometry.
Posted: Thu Aug 04, 2016 12:13 am
Hello fellow Octane fanatics,
The new volume objects in C4D and Octane 3 are an amazing addition to an already fantastic plugin. But I am having a bit of trouble effecting them with native C4D tools.
So my question is, how can I cut into a volume object using another object and the boolean tool?
I am using a volume object to create a simple cloud as a the base form for my design and animation. I need to essentially cut out a pie piece to reveal content within.
Is this at all possible? I am able to generate clouds, smoke, without any issues at all, I can clone them, but cant seem to use booleans on them. The only other solution I can think of is animating a vdb container and not sure if this is possible at the moment.
thanks
