Christoph Schädl Shows a quick setup for passing Bifrost field data over to a shader.

Over the last little while, Christoph Schädl has dove into working with the new Bifrost scatter nodes, sharing some of his discoveries. A new video shows how easy it is to pass Bifrost field data over to an Arnold shader.

It’s merely a matter of getting the point position for that object, sampling the field, converting the data to a float4, and then working with Arnold’s User Data. If you updated to Arnold MtoA, 4.2, make sure you are using Bifrost 2.2.0.2.
