Mesh to Volume Node

The Mesh to Volume node creates a fog volumes based on the shape of a mesh. The volume is created with a grid of the name “density”.

Inputs

Mesh: Standard Mesh input.
Density: Value of voxels inside the generated fog volume.
Voxel Amount: Specify the approximate number of voxels along the diagonal.
Voxel Size: Specify the voxel side length.
Exterior Band Width: The maximum distance of the included voxels to the surface on the outside of the mesh.
Interior Band Width: The maximum distance of the included voxels to the surface on the inside of the mesh. Activating Fill Volume is similar to increasing the interior band width to a high number.
Fill Volume: The entire enclosed volume or otherwise only the voxels close to the surface will get a density greater than zero. This setting is only used when the mesh object is Manifold.

Resolution

How the voxel size is specified.

Amount: Specify the approximate number of voxels along the diagonal.
Size: Specify the voxel side length. It is recommended to be careful when tweaking this value, because small changes can have a large effect on the processing time.
