Yeah any non AD product ! Btw testing RS + Houdini here and so far they did an excellent work, and it's only an alpha. Other than that I spend my time making HDAs that reproduce ICE. Modulate by volume, flow on surface, goal system, point/primitive/intrinsic manipulators etc... All the things we brilliantly had working with point+polygon geometry. In Houdini they tend to transform every thing in VDB or fill volumes with nuts number of points just to transfer datas...
