Hi Seghier,

there was a bug inside the extension, when getting the bounds of the vdb grid and other couple of things. Hopefully, this fix will be out in the next patch.

Here´s a screenshot of the rendered cloud (sorry for the ugly color.... )

thanks Miguel

i had the same problem with the new version
and the last version of openvdb is : 3.1

[Miguel]

You're right, it doesn´t work. Something went wrong compiling the final package. We're fixing it.
Sorry for the annoyance.

Cheerios.
