Hello. Is there a way to import VDB flames into Daz Studio? Thanks.

    VDBs in Iray do not currently support emissive properties.

    Ok. How to create an emissive mesh texture of my flames then? Like in Pyromantix - Volumetric Flames?

    Regular geometry can be emissive - but that is just 2D surfaces (possibly a stack of them in a case like Pyromantix).

    I don't know enough about it to argue this, but it doesn't seem to be a stack of 2D sprites...  The Fire and the Smoke are separate Surfaces, and when selecting the surface, I don't see a bunch of squares in different orientations like I do with other mist/smoke type effects...
