Hi All!

I'm trying to find a way of getting useful infos about a pyro sym I'm doing and then exporting to vdb files. I need to know which is the density/heat/temperature min and max values in order to remap those values correctly outside of houdini. any idea?

Take a look at primitive intrinsics. There are volumeminvalue and volumemaxvalue for each volume primitive. Afaik they are not on VDBs, so you have to get them from your original sim volumes before you convert to VDB.

Hi Mariusz

thanks for your reply, meanwhile I was looking around and found this solution as well (maybe is the same you suggested)

reg the vdb, you're right you cannot plug vdb straight but you can convert them and read the data
