VDB file not rendering in Live Viewer

So, everything was working just fine, I was rendering a smoke vdb file in a Vdb volume object in the LiveViewer with no problems. Then I opened a new file in c4d to do some modeling and when I came back to the file with the vdb file it wasn't rendering in the LiveViewer anymore, just disappeared. I have restarted c4d, created a new Vdb volume object and still doesn't render in the LiveViewer.

Any clues to what is going on?

I'm using Octane 3, iMac 27, GTX 980Ti egpu, c4d 16.

Wrong setup or wrong vdb. Did you checked samples scenes to see settings?

What do you mean by "wrong vdb?" It was working perfectly in the LV before and then it just stopped working.

The vdb was dowloaded from http://www.openvdb.org/download/

So restart LV and check octane log output for any errors
