One of the first of many packs for True-VDB; Fire
This pack contains 13 'hot' LOOPED Fire VDBs. That's right, We got looped fire simulations for all sorts! Window fires, Building blazes, campfires... We even have a trashcan fire!
With the Fire pack, we parent placeholder objects to the VDB module, so you know where to swap out the burning debris, or where to place your Torch handle. We even spent the time adding in Window Empties, so that you know how far in to place the volume of the recess, so that our simulated interactions look correct!
All of the VDB files in this collection are animated, and run indefinitely with a loop.
We have custom made all the shaders for True-VDB, FIRE being the one that comes with this pack, offering options to enhance the detail of flames, colour temperature, smoke amount, colour and thickness for an authentic look.
These are a guideline
Yes, but the content is not designed for that. If you choose to use the VDBs outside of the addon, then we do not take responsibility for them not working as intended and we cannot support you if you have issues. Please download the free version of True-VDB to use the packs as intended.
Unfortunately, we can't advise what render times you will see as there are too many factors to give an accurate answer. All we can say is that rendering on a CPU will be slower than a GPU and using mobile variants (laptops etc) will be slower again.
We would advise that using a modern GPU will give you fastest results in Cycles. The more compute cores (CUDA/OPTIX/Stream Processors) the faster your renders will be.
The loops are as seamless as they can be. Looping a simulation is not easy, and we have tried our best to ensure they are seamless. Please make sure you're using 24, 25 or 30 fps to get best results.
You can use these in any RENDERS for any purpose, be that education, personal or commercial. You cannot sell, repackage or distribute these in any way.
No. VDBs are a baked-out sequence and timing cannot be remapped. This means these cannot be slowed down or sped up.
All our VDBs come with custom shaders that have many controls for changing fire details, brightness and colours. You can also adjust the way the smoke looks with density, thickness and colour in some cases.
You are also able to swap the default material, to any material that we ship; meaning if you want to add a magic shader to an explosion, then this is possible.
