Vray light material illuminating smoke

[cam.crichton]

Can I use a light material on objects to illuminate the smoke from a Phoenix grid? All tests so far point to this not working.

Hello,

Seems to be working in here. Do you have GI enabled? What version of V-Ray are you using?

Can you show us what settings are you using?

Thanks!

it turned out to be an issue with tyFlow not interfacing with Phoenix - I stuck a light material sphere in the smoke and it worked. Using tyFlow or tyCaches would not work.

Can you send over the scene so we can take a look?

Thank you!

Tyson Ibelle has acknowledged the bug in the interface and should be fixed in the next release of tyFlow

Great, that's good to know. Thanks!
