vray instancer using vray volume grid

[vance3d]

I'm trying to distribute vray volume grids with pflow using the vray instancer and it only seems to work in mesh mode. When I try setting the volume grid to atmospheric it doesn't render the instances at all and when I try to do it as geometry atmosphere it doesn't render and I get an unhandled exception as well. I can use the mesh setting for now but it would be handy if the other settings could work also.

This brings me to another problem involving the vray instancer itself. It would be great to be able to drive animation offsets for the instancer source objects through the pflow shape settings. It doesn't seem to have that type of control at the moment.

thanks,

Will check this out. The animation is also on the "to do" list.

We managed to reproduce the issue into our environment.
Mesh and Cap modes operates correctly but all other modes either crash with unhandled exception or do not render at all.
We'll let you know when we have some progress on that regard.

Thanks for confirming the issue and working toward resolving it.

Your efforts are much appreciated.

We are sorry to report but this is not fixed yet, please use Mesh or Cap modes until the fix come out.
