(Fixed) [HOU-2330] Vray5 Fire volume broken ?

[ghiom3d]

Hi, looks like fire in volume grid shader isn't work at all.
I can put any volume, with density temperature flame etc.. even creating temperature with volume wrangle . it's not fire.
Smoke work fine, so i know density is here and work, so i put the density in fire field to give a try, put the multiplier to 100000000 and there is always no fire at all.

is it broken ?

[ghiom3d]

I checked with Vray 4. It's work with Vray4. not with vray 5. so, Vray 5 fire is broken

[ghiom3d]

There is anybody here from chaosgroup to check this ? Volume Fire is missing in the release.

Hey ghiom3d ,

That is correct, one of the parameters on the Volume Grid shader is not being exported. We'll likely update the builds or drop a hotfix. In case it is urgent for you, the following Renderer ROP -> Post-Translate script will force the export:

import vray
with vray.VRayRenderer() as v:
    for p in v.plugins:
        if p.getType()=='PhxShaderSim':
            p.earg=1 

Hope that helps!

Hey david.anastacio , ghiom3d ,

I'll message the support team right away - it looks like you do not have access to the builds.
