OTOY Forums

Anyone,
Sorry to ask, was there anywhere in the octane forum, or any post that anyone remembers, that had a head to toe tutorial of some sort how flame and smoke in C4D with TFD work.
There are so many options - Density, Fuel, Burn, Temperature, Ramp, etc. and then Octane medium colors to assign with Absorption, Scatter, Volume...
Wondering if there were any good recap.

Thanks and Regards!

Starting to see some patterns with what channels will create smoke and what channels create a mono-colored emitter, I will update with findings.
here are 2 renders messing with it:

(1) I used the TFD flame thrower and change the color Ramp to have a rainbow smoke trail. I rendered in 2 sessions and changed bloom without thinking on the second half, which is why it changes midway (2) I created a basic emitter, no tweaks really Here is a Lavender flame I am wondering the following things, will likely find out:
(1) Lower Voxel size = higher resolution? ie 0.1 is higher res than 0.5...
(2) What does it take to get a nice crisp high res voxel/volume/vdb/flame/V3-medium object/fluffaroo

It should not be so hard to see what's what after play a bit. Voxelsize is size of voxels. Same space will have much more voxels when voxelsize get smaller. Same logic as in pixels of images. Just one extra dimension on z.
There's a page in manual and some examples for tfd.
