**OD Create VDB As Proxy** assists in the easy creation of Proxy (lowres) objects via the VDB mechanism.

Options:

  * Setup Automatic Rendertime Replacement: Uses the OD Rendertime replacement plugin in the setup to automatically create, then load & replace the proxy
  * Voxel Size: The size that each voxel takes up (essentially the detail level of the vdb, smaller = more detailed but obviously slower)
  * Expansion Offset (can grow the initial vdb in "thickness")  The value is in voxels, so 1.0 would be 1 voxel thickness added or removed
  * Create UV: By default, no uv's are created for the proxy, but optionally, you can create a simple poly grid uv or, more advanced a good unwrap via RizomUV (requires rizomUV installed from www.rizom-lab.com)

Here's a how-to video showing OD Create VDB as Proxy in action.
