you could turn your deep data into points (as you mentioned) then use
that to emit one particle per point. that way you may get more control
over render behaviour.
haven't tried it myself yet, just a thought.

Yep, that's exactly what I think aswell. I haven't tried it with volumetrics
though, only with solid objects, which looked awful when rendered as
pointcloud. Maybe you could get away visually with pretty simple volumetrics.

hey patrick
cheers for the reply, I was just thinking that aside from the volume / cloud
evolving and undulating over time clouds could be rendered as a single frame
and camera independent from 3d and any camera move applied in nuke, hopefully
in time this is something that would be possible.

Hi adam,
As you said you already answered your own question, "deepToPoints" gives you a pointcloud
representation of your Deep files, similar to what "PositionToPoints" does.
What you mentioned under 1.) is theoretically possible, but rendering
pointclouds in Nuke doesn't give a satisfying result yet.
Regards
Patrick

hey all
Being that I don't have Renderman install I can't test these things my self,
so
If I had for example a cloud rendered with deep comp values could I
1. fly a nuke camera though it and see the changes in opacity and density as
the camera passes though it
2. would there be a way in the 3D environment using the depth values to have
the cloud represented as a 3D volume, similar to what a ppp can do for other
3d renders in nukes 3d environment ? Might have answered my own question
"deep to points"?
