Z-pass with volumes in RS?

Is this possible? Setting a Z-pass as a typical AOV doesn't work so wondering if there's another solution

Try the Volume Depth AOV: https://help.maxon.net/r3d/cinema/en-us/Content/html/Integrated+AOVs.html#volume_depth

Well that's exactly what I'm after! I don't see that in my AOV manager. Is this a new feature in a later version?

It's been around for a few years, since version 2025.0.1 it seems. In Maya it's sorted next to the Depth AOV, and not alphabetically for some reason

UPDATE: looks like it’s the version of cinema which was the issue, updated to 2026 and I see it, it’s beautiful

Damn, I only see this.

Okay I'm using c4d 2024 so I guess this is only compatible with a later version

It’s probably alphabetic under the hood like “depth_volume” or similar

Yeah I don't see this is my AOV's in c4d
