Vraylightmaterial limitations

[stevesideas]

Vraylightmaterial does not create GI or bounced light within a VDB object cloud. Is there a way to get this working?
I'm currently using Tylow with a light material applied. I either need to get light material working within the VDB object or convert the particles (somehow) to vraylights which work fine.

It woks just fine for me.
Perhaps is the VVG settings, could you share those?

Here is the scene. You'll need to import a VDB cloud.

Hmm. It seems it is because Tyflow is using a vraylightmaterial. If I apply the same material to a sphere and place it inside the cloud it works fine. Maybe this is a bug of Tyflow or some kind of limitation of vraylightmaterial ?

ok. In the end I used tymesher. This converts all particles to meshes and this method works fine. Not sure why vraylightmaterial woud be having issues with particles though.
