Hi, I tried to find if anyone else posted something relaed to this, but correctly please if I’m wrong (specially about what I’m asking). I saw this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t6R3JwCy02M is related to corona render, and it’s volume shader that lets you render you geometry as a cloud or sm…

We talked about something similar here . As i suggested there, i would look into houdini vdb operations to be used inside vray with volumegrid. I know it can be intimidating but trust me it’s gonna be invaluable and not so dramatic. As a side note I asked a long time ago chaos to at least integrate…

Hi Kagemaru thanks for talking you time write. I’d just read all the conversation on the forum and actually yesterday I gave 3 votes to a post on the Autodesk 3dsmax feedback to support the OpenVDB inside max. Strob commented on it also. Here is the link 3ds Max Ideas - Autodesk Community I really …

Thanks Recon for your answer, it actually looks better with vray in my opinion. I found that is provably more versatil the vray environment fog in the case I want to create clouds using a geometry as a gizmo, but I’m actually looking for something that lets you work with volumes and dig them (with p…

Yes, I thought at first glance that Corona shader was capable to do the same as the vray environment fog but just because I never tried vrayvolumescatter mat before. By the way, run some test with the vrayvolumegrid if you haven’t yet, I think us faster than the env fog. Cheers

I tried recreating those Corona clouds in VRay, and while the VRayScatterVolume material gives a result close to Corona’s shader, I can’t recreate the detail displacement achieved by the CoronaDisplacementMod with VRay’s own displacement modifier. I keep getting black artifact of overlapping geometr…

The problem is not in the displacement as such, more in the fact that there are intersecting portions of the mesh. Feel free to post a scene so that we can check it out. Best regards, Vlado

It happen to me too, but yes, it seems to be that some faces are crossing so they become black or darker

its funny cause i had a personal project wich i had to render clouds for these days. here is the result with vray environment fog. try’d with volumeMtl first, but missed the gizmo falloff, wich helps a lot for such things like clouds imo. would be great to have it in VolumeMTL too if it make sense. …

that must have taken a fair while to render ? getting that kind of density and detail in the env fog has always caused me issues.
