Re: Set Driven Key Copy/Paste in Maya

Copy-paste of selected nodes, makes a copy of everything connected to selected nodes, including hidden connections to layers, Node Editor bookmarks, so on. ''Safe way''  could be saving a copy of scene, deleting everything else (including layers and such), copying back to original scene.

Houdini : non VFX jobs?

Hello I'd like to know if Houdini is somewhere used as a generalist tool: not only simulations and FX but also modelling , texturing, , rigging, animation, lighting a scene, etc? Is there a company that uses Houdini this way? And if no, do you think a company will use Houdini this way

Re: ice to maya workflow

Chris, I have just been there - same issue. A couple of bits are missing n the Exocortex installation info. You need to create a folder directly in the C: root and name it ExocortexCrateAlembic and unzipped or copy the maya version folder directly into it - like this:

Companies have tried this I think CORE used it in most areas years ago Ask sidefx, they showed me quite a few projects all houdini when I've visited Graham D Clark phone: why-I-stereo

Re: ice to maya workflow

Thanks a lot Morten!! That works! Superb! So I can see my particles in Maya, I just need to figure out how to add some of the attributes that they had in soft. Cheers On 2 May 2018 at 11:21, Morten Bartholdy wrote: > Chris, I have just been there – same issue. A couple

Re: Houdini : non VFX jobs?

Many do although rigging+animation is not so common… yet. ;-) Framestore Commercials (where I am based) has a lot of Houdini and pretty much all the FX, lighting and rendering backbone is Houdini. jb > On 2 May 2018, at 11:56, David Saber wrote: > > Hello > > I'd like to

Re: Houdini : non VFX jobs?

Its something I've been wondering too. I have been learning Houdini for the last year or more, and I really like it, but I am concerned I'm going to spend my working days doing vfx sims, which isn't my favourite. Houdini is still very much shoved into the vfx box. I dread the thought of being

Re: Houdini : non VFX jobs?

Houdini is increasingly being used by Motion Design shops too. Prime examples being ManvsMachine and Aixsponza (there are many, many more). Outside of FX, I think Houdini is most often partnered with another DCC in the major shops. For motion design, the partner is more likely to be C4D, but

Re: Houdini : non VFX jobs?

As soon as I started looking at Maya, it just made me sad, but when I delved into Houdini i felt quite at home and it always feels like they are pushing it forward. Also re Maya I never had that "ooh thats a good feature", but with Houdini its all the time, I just need to up my coding skills. On

if it had a good auto-rigger like gear, shape animation tools, and an easy to use animation mixer I’d be all over it. From: Jordi Bares Sent: Wednesday, May 2, 2018 2:08 PM To: Official Softimage Users Mailing
