Hello ;

I tried to assign a Volume-Light to my volume-particles, but I got an error :
“mantra: Point cloud handle referenced before it was opened. Was pcopen() called?”

How can I fix this?


Thanks.

I had a similar problem a while back and I don't really recall how I fixed it. But here is a working example file I pulled from an OdForce thread on the topic. Basically some VEX code creates cone shaped density patterns within a volume which then gets used for emission by the Volume Light. Try adjusting the light cone settings inside the VDB geometry object.
