Principled volume

Support Lighting and Rendering

I cant use density with cycles no matter how basic the scene. hooked up an 8k HDRI for the environmental texture (color) then added principled volume. The only object in the scene is a cube. On eevee I can play with density and emission all I want, if I switch to cycles the scene will not render unless density and emission strength are 0. cycles seems to work fine as long as I dont touch that but … density too good for concept.

Processor AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-Core Processor, 3793 Mhz, 12 Core(s), 24 Logical Processor(s)
Adapter Type GeForce RTX 3080, NVIDIA compatible

I’m new to blender. Am I doing something wrong?

I seems that many things break cycles for me. I also cannot hook up mapping

Sometimes you need to remove the “density” attribute from the shader. Also, you need a texture coordinate node before the mapping. (you can also press Ctrl+T after selecting an image texture with node wrangler enabled)
