Hi,

How can i make the smoke dissipate only inside a specified bounding volume. Like for fumefx we have effectors where we can give a certain condition inside a bounding volume to affect the turbulence/dissipation.

Thanks.

Here's one way, I bet someone will find a cleaner method.

This takes advantage of the new nicer source volume dops in H17, so I create a volume to use as density, and a volume called ‘turbcontrol’ to use as a turbulence mask.

In dops I source both in, and set the control field of the gasturbulence to point to ‘turbcontrol’, and set its influence to 1.

That's another cool addition in 17 i guess. Wow! Cant wait to try this out in 17!

Thanks

To be clear you can do this in 16.5 too, just a little tidier to setup in 17.
