  Excellent add-on. High-quality effects. The author suggested a solution to the problem with the frame rate of baked effects, which I hadn't thought of myself. So, great and fast support. I recommend this add-on.

  Hi Vlad!

  Thanks a lot for your detailed feedback - We really appreciate you taking the time to point this out.

  You’re absolutely right that the 24 fps limitation should have been clearer upfront. We’ve updated the product page to make this much more explicit so future users can make a fully informed decision before purchasing. With drivers, VDB sequences can be stretched to a custom frame rate. I'd be happy to show you how to do it.

  Regarding Eevee: While the pack is optimized for Cycles, we would really like to better understand the specific issues you ran into. If you’re open to it, feel free to message us with details.

  Also, if the product doesn’t meet your needs right now, we completely understand. We would be happy to offer you a refund. Just send us a message.

  Thanks again for your honest review.

  Have a nice day!
  Robin

  After a few days of using this add-on, I can confidently say it is the highest quality animated VDB library available for Blender. The VDBs are not only well optimized, but also highly realistic and polished. It would be extremely difficult to recreate this level of detail from scratch, as each one is masterfully crafted.

  At one point I wanted to make a rocket thruster flame, so by scaling the jet vapor VDB on the Y axis and adding some lights, I was able to achieve a perfectly photoreal rocket thruster effect. The flexibility and realism of these assets make them a joy to work with.

  The only drawback I found is that dense animated VDBs take a long time to render with the default materials. Lowering the sample count per frame helps, but can cause noise or splotchy results, especially with thick smoke. I also own Real Cloud, a static VDB library that includes an optimized cloud material and volumetric settings for Cycles, which makes rendering much faster while maintaining quality. If a similar optimization system were implemented for this animated VDB library, it would take the add-on to an entirely new level.

  That said, this add-on is fantastic for those who want to add realistic 24fps simulations into their scenes with the click of a button. I am excited to see future releases like "Fire and Flames", "Explosions" and maybe even some other elemental effects like water or sci-fi VDB libraries. Keep up the amazing work.

  Thank you for your feedback! We are glad you like the add-on and the VDBs!
  We will look into what we can do about the render performance.
  Cheers!

  Not only is the addon great but support is fantastic...Robin went out of his way to help me with a technical glitch and got me up and running in no time. I highly recommend not just the product, but the vendor as well.

  This is a really versatile collection of great quality VDB's. The variety of different simulations is well thought out and I can see myself using those in many different projects. Initially my Mac gave me some issues but developer was very helpful and swift to hand-out the solution. Very happy with this!

  What a fantastic collection! Worth every penny! The VDBs are top quality and very diverse. I'm already looking forward to future VDB expansion packs teased in the addon!
  Maybe you could optimize the shop page, it is loading very slow (for me at least). Great product!
