Since 21.0

This node initializes a VDB from the values in a layer. The node takes an existing VDB and sets its values to the corresponding layer values. The layer values are chosen by using the layer’s camera projection to map the VDB’s location onto the layer.

A float or vector VDB to use as the activation topology to build the sampled output.

layer

A layer to sample the VDB values from.

An optional vector VDB with values used instead of the voxels' world positions.

Outputs

The VDB that matches the vdb_ref whose voxels are sampled from the layer.
