Houdini Custom Pyro Shader | Redshift, Renderman, Arnold

in this tutorial, you will learn how you can create a custom pyro shader for #Renderman, #Arnold, and #Redshift with the same features as the new Pyro Shader in #houdini for #Mantra and #Karma.

The main idea is to keep the same look of fire and explosion with those rendering engines to compare to Mantra.

If you are a beginner you can just check the second part of this video (Check below chapters).

I spent a whole day trying to figure out why my volume motion blur didn't work in redshift. Thank you so much for the tip right at the end! The annotations on the timeline describing what's in the video were super useful to find exactly what I needed too. Much appreciated!

About the first method, actually you can resample the Ce scatter field to get a higher quality. Inside the Pyro Bake Volume node, in the Emission Volume backdrop there is a vdbresample1 node. Switch it to Using Voxel Size Only and set a small Voxel Size.

Unfortunately you can reach hundreds of millions of voxels quickly and actually the result still won't be as nice as the subvoxel shading which is happening in render time, so I don't recommend to do this!! :)

But it's also an option and maybe you'll run into situations when only brute force resampling could help.

It doesn’t work on the latest renderman and Houdini anymore would be greatly appreciated if you could update it. Because at the moment I’m completely stuck.

[Mazou_VFX]
