Houdini Redshift Volume Help


Recommended Posts

Hello guys i was testing redshift for houdini and couldnt render volume... Does anybody having a problem about that or its just me?

I tried to convert the volume to vdb , vdb volume , polygon soup and didnt work. then tried to add ObjParm to geometry and enabled volume parameter and didnt work again. What else i need to do?

Hi Sercan,

you need 3 things to render volumes with redshift.

1. Volume should be Houdini Volume, VDB or VDB-File

2. Add ObjParm to geo and enable volume parameter (choose the right type)

3. a redshift light - because only redshift light can contribute to volume

That is!
