How can i convert the Particles or Volumes to a mesh using the new Bifrost graph

Hi 

First off the new Bifrost graph is really amazing. But im having trouble figure out how or if there is a way to convert the particles/ Volumes to a mesh, is it possible ?

Hey everyone, cool solution for converting to mesh. However, I can't get this to work with particle instances. Bifrost novice here. How would I go about that?

Thanks in advance!

try converting the instances to geometry using the: bake_instanced_geometry node.

Hi @syracoj , thanks for your quick reply!

 

Something like this?

This doesn't seem to work, as no mesh shows up in the outliner.

If you right click on the output nodes 'particles' port is there an entry at the bottom that says "Create Maya Mesh"?
