EmberGenFX VDB issues

Sun Oct 02, 2022 11:00 pm

I have an issue with VDB's not showing up. This only happens when I attach an animated model either ABS or FBX to the emitter. If I have a perimeter attached to the emitter node via shape. It works fine. But when I import an animated format and attach it to the emitter. It simulates just fine but the exported VDB sequence doesn't show up in octane standalone.
I've attached some of the VDB sequence files.
Thanks

Thanks for the files. We'll look into it.

It looks like the VDB sequence actually renders, but it was so small/faint, it was easy to miss.

I'm not familiar with EmberGenFX, so I'm not sure why it's so small. Maybe you can control this in the VDB export settings?

Here is an OCS where I've set the VDB's import units to kilometers instead of meters, which makes it a lot more obvious.
