V-Ray Volume Scattering

This section contains information about the V-Ray Volume Scattering Component in V-Ray for Grasshopper.

Overview

Creates instances of the input Scatter 2 Guests scattered inside the object's bounding box (Scatter 2 Hosts). Used as a V-Ray Scatter 2 component’s Scattering Configuration input. Keep in mind that bounding boxes are cube-shaped, therefore using this mode on a round object scatters instances in a cube around it.

Input Parameters

Instances Count (Integer) – Determines the exact number of instances to scatter.

Per Volume (Boolean) – When enabled, the total number of instances is determined by the Cubic Volume Size value combined with the size of the host’s bounding box volume.

Volume Size (Number) – The value specifies the length of the cube’s side used to measure volume distribution. If the Instances Count value is set to 1, this number determines the relative density for all instances.

Output Parameters

Scattering (Generic Data) – Configuration data specifying the scattering mode. Can be connected to the V-Ray Scatter 2 component’s Scattering Configuration input.
