implicit surfaces - again

[jacksc02]

lets hope so! Maybe dimo could help Illia with aura

[dimo]

Hehe,

this is not even a fraction of a fraction of what aura is. I can not add motion of any kind to the voxels. No simulation etc. And I am using a regular Grid. And no viewport preview.

Can anybody remember one of the first Vray SDKs where the vray plane was still implemented as an atmospheric effect? I have lost this old SDK and want to have a look at it. Does anybody have this at hand?

Best Regards,
Dieter

[jacksc02]

what version of the sdk are you after?
Maybe vlado has them somewhere

[dimo]

Thanks jacksc02,

Vlado already sent me the relevant code by now. I am already deep in code...

Best Regards

Fun!

Is this dead, (he asks 4 years later)?

Is there a similar plugin anywhere that does voxel/raymarch stuff?

[instinct]

Phoenix does for voxeldata, and BerconMetaballs for particles i guess

i want it back so bad. please make up pay at least how much work is a recompile for recent max (2010-12) and vray (1.50-2.0)?

[anchovy]

agreed.

I would love to see this again... ...maybe as part of the next build of vray... ...new feature... ...nudge nudge wink wink... ...vlado.

Checking to see if this continues to be dead...

[vlado]

There is the Bercon Metaballs plugin, which for the moment works fine. The next major version of V-Ray will also include a metaballs object built-in (the same one that we already have in Maya).

If it can replicate VrayIso's functionality I need to buy you a case of beer at siggraph! And yes you can hold me to that.

Thanks

Any more details on the Max implementation aka. will it have more features?

[anchovy]

The big hope is that it has a marching cubes proxy representation in the view port like VrayIso. That workflow was awesome.
