Volumetric Options

This page provides information on the Volumetric Options for rendering the V-Ray Volume Grid.

Overview

The Volumetric Options parameters control the emissive, diffuse, and opacity properties of the VRayVolumeGrid. The Volumetric Options button near the top of the Rendering rollout accesses these parameters.

Rollouts

Volumetric Options are divided into three rollouts:

  • Fire Rollout Controls the emissive (fire) color of the volumetric shader, and the light emitted by the simulator.

  • Smoke Color Rollout – Controls the diffuse color of the volumetric shader.

  • Smoke Opacity Rollout – Controls the transparency part of the volumetric shader.
