Re: Xsi to Houdini Quick Start Tutorials

Hey, Yes there is of course lots of ways of doing the same thing in Houdini and this is just one of them. I haven't found sop solvers that slow with simple operations like this, but then I also usually work with crowds/flocks etc so I rarely exceed a million packed prims. It will be

Re: Xsi to Houdini Quick Start Tutorials

Yes, I also wondered this. Also, POP Wrangle and POP VOP nodes have already been setup to use the opstreamname expression internally which enable nodes to respect streams themselves. The sop solver itself will not limit itself to the stream it resides in afaik. On Sat, Jan 28, 2017 at 3:12

Re: Xsi to Houdini Quick Start Tutorials

Mikael, I think it's also worth noting that you can do the exact same thing whilst remaining in the POP dynamics context if you use POP Wrangles and POP VOPs. Do you have any specific reason for using the SOP Solver or is it just personal preference? I was warned against using SOP Solvers with

Just popping this up. http://shortandsweet3d.blogspot.fr/2017/01/xsi-to-houdini-4-from-states-to-streams.html?m=1 Mikael did it again and it's brutal ! The State method is ace, and is ressembling to something :) You got me lost with the array though ;) 2017-01-12 17:39 GMT+01:00 Chris

Peter Quint's video on Pop Streams shows a fairly straightforward approach to creating states. On Thu, Jan 12, 2017 at 1:40 PM, wrote: > I'll do it in dops because it's trickier, but I'll set it up in vops just > because it's closer to ICE > > Skickat från min iPhone

Re: Xsi to Houdini Quick Start Tutorials

Not everything, but yeah State Machine is something I try to reproduce in popvop but some easy features are missing such as "get time in state" and other nodes that gave the age of the particle relative to the moment it entered the stage. 2017-01-12 12:45 GMT+01:00 Cristobal Infante

I could you show a similar setup in Houdini, but I am nowhere as eloquent as the MASTER Bradley Gabe... Also you must forget everything you know (state Machines, bla bla). On Thu, 12 Jan 2017 at 11:34, Chris Marshall wrote: > indeed! > > On 12 January 2017 at

Re: Xsi to Houdini Quick Start Tutorials

OK Thanks guys. Well for me, I know very little about Houdini, other than just getting my head around the interface. With Ice, I can load a demo fireworks scene, dive into the ICE tree, and figure out how the fireworks are created. It's very straight forwards as you have an emitter node, forces
