textcoding will cost money to our clients: it's time consuming, and not responding to the (cinema)scope of the producers demands. just watched today's houdini16 geometry workflow tutorial. the only result of these avant-gardist mathematical researches, is the corresponding repetitivity in any 3d

I don’t think so. As Jonathan mentioned already, conditionals and flow control is often easier to ‘read’ in text form than it is in a node graph. Every tool has its place, so does code in text form :D Happy weekend. Andy > On Apr 14, 2017, at 3:18 AM, Jason S wrote: >

The bit that’s most odd to me is using HScript style $ in VEX. Is that VEX code that you’ve copy pasted from somewhere else? I most admit one of the things I like about VEX is that I find it very readable. Especially for anything involving loops and flow control. Nodes are horrendous for that

With you there Andy ref the VDB tools. Much like the Entagma boys have been showing, VDB’s in Houdini are about so much more than what you'd traditionally think of as volumetric workflows. > On 12 Apr 2017, at 17:12, Andy Nicholas wrote: > > Definitely useful. Thanks

Definitely useful. Thanks Jonathan. Not had a chance to look through the VDB examples, but they sound good; VDBs are so powerful. I find particularly with Houdini there's alway something new to learn or improve on. It never bloody stops! ;) On 12/04/2017 16:39, Jonathan Moore wrote: > I’ve
