  • (Resolved) volumeGrid shader defaults

    Hi,

    Looks like the defaults on the volumeGrid shader are incorrect, in the "Bindings" section, the default in the "Color Field" attribute should be "Cd.*", this will throw new user off.
    In the manual it shows the correct default: https://docs.chaosgroup.com/display/VRAYHOUDINI/Fields

    Best,
    David.

    Hey David,

    the Color Ramps will only work with float fields so I opted to change the default to "density". If "Cd.*" is specified and not found, V-Ray will fallback to using the Constant Color parameter which is now hidden.
    I'd rather we improve the documentation (currently doing that) for volume rendering than causing confusion that way.
    Does that make sense ?

    Best regards!
