Working on a scene where I have fire in a metal bowl using Octane VDB volume. Everything is working great.

Now I want to duplicate the volume and move the fire to some torches and change the parameters to make the flames looks different. Problem is, everytime I change them, it changes the fire in the metal bowls as well.

How do I duplicate these and break the connection between them so they act as individual volumes and not linked instances? Is it even possible?

BTW, these VDB volumes are great. I build what I want in Blender using their fire/smoke generators and use the animated files in C4D.

Nevermind, figured it out myself. I just created a preset based on the first volume and then loaded it. It acts independently of the other.
