Neon Junkyard Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Hey guys, I am having an issue that I can't figure out. I have an imported alembic file from maya and am converting it to a VDB using the cloud tool. However if I change the resolution of the cloud object to anything other than the default, most of the model disappears and I am left with only tiny clumps. If I remap the density it starts to reappear, but when rendered it looks transparent. I have tried a bunch of different solutions, including every kind of world space scale trick I can think of, cleaned and checked every aspect of the model, and still I always get unpredictable and random results. Sometimes plugging in different combinations of noise and switching between models and switching back yields completely different results. Is this a VDB problem, a problem with my model, with alembic? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I attached a simple scene with my alembic file Thank you! alembic_cloud.rar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbarua Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Your file doesn't have cloud rig. I tested by creating new one and it just works fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
