Smoke rendering using Pyro shader

[Naeem]

Hi,

I finished a smoke sim and now I am looking to render it. I am using a Pyro shader and I transferred attributes from my pyro object in DOPs to my shader. However, I am getting very different results in the render - its not looking anything like the visualization. I am using micropolygon with depth map shadows on the light. Any ideas on how to fix it?

Please see attached screenshots and file.

Thanks.

IF you middle click on import_pyro_build/import_pyrofields you will notice that your volume primitives have no names.

Thats because you have put "* ^density ^temperature ^v ^P" in the compression/ Attributes to Delete.

There is no attribute called density or temperature, its a string attribute called name with a value of "density" or "temperature".

Clear that line and just unclick the non wanted fields to import in the Fields tab instead.

Thanks Martin. That has fixed the problem.
