Hey guys! i'll keep it succinct.
i'm trying to advect some particles via a VDB I've imported from Embergen.
I've imported a VDB with the purpose of having it advect some particles I've made from my pop network it looks like this
, and it has THESE attributes.
As you can see, it has velocity in the x y and z. However in the Advect by volume node in my pop network.
The field name for the source is just Vel
So that makes me wonder, do I need to tell Houdini that the velocity's I've brought in, are assigned to vel? if so. How do I do that?
Importing a VDB and getting a velocity from said VDB

In this case, it's just asking what the field is called in your source so just use velocity as it's called in your volume.
First, though, the velocity field names don't appear to be in the typical format for Houdini - you'll probably want to use a name SOP to rename the volumes, substituting periods in place of the underscore (or change it to vel.x etc and then leave the parameter in popadvectbyvolumes at default)
