  • Is it possible to mesh fire?

    I have managed to mesh the smoke by simply activaing the "show mesh" but i would relly like to remove the smoke and just have the fire. But when i do this it doesn't show the mesh.

    Cheers!

    Hey,

    Yes, Show Mesh will enable the mesh viewport preview. However, this is separate from rendering. In order ro render as mesh, you need to go into the Rendering rollout and switch the mode to Mesh as well.

    Then, you can also choose which channel to mesh - change the Surface option to Temperature, and adjust the Isosurface Level - Smoke usually goes between 0-1, but for temperature this value needs to be a lot higher - check this page: https://docs.chaosgroup.com/pages/vi...xitMobile=true
    Note that if you want to render both a mesh and a volumetric from the same data, you will need to load the same caches into two separate Simulators.

    Cheers!
