I was waiting for ‘who at all the pies?’

Basically, you just pack each set of primitives (i.e. one for each sphere, torus, etc) first, then merge them all together in a Merge SOP. Now you can just grab them as individual primitives inside VEX which is incredibly convenient. It works because each packed primitive has the @path attribute to indicate where it came from that you can use directly in the @instancepath attribute. Hopefully the attached image should show up below.

Here`s my take at it: <houdini.jpg> now the question: while this works I don't like the idea of typing in object names on the string array..I'd prefer something like wiring inputs to a merge node and querying the connected nodes from that merge node from inside attrib wrangle. Is that possible, or are there more clever ways to accomplish the same task? thanks! 2017-03-21 10:13 GMT+01:00 Fabricio Chamon <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> >: thanks for the link Jonathan. It is so informative! And it clearly points a beginner to the right direction performance-wise, as there are many ways to do the same thing in vex. 2017-03-21 0:42 GMT+01:00 Eugene Flormata <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> >: so this hasn't changed much since in the 16 update? I just started some tutorials on game tutors and bought https://vimeo.com/195580569, it got into vex pretty quickly. coding in general is pretty outside my skillset, so I'm looking for basics in houdini to pick up. https://www.pluralsight.com/courses/houdini-practical-math-tips I even bought a month of pluralsight to learn this, which I think Jordi posted in a thread a while back? I'm trying to find more things to learn houdini and upgrade my skillset thanks for the post!

Be sure to download the deck and example files too (I’d download the Vimeo video as well so you can setup bookmarks in VLC). Jeff has been with SideFX since the very beginning so his webinars are always full of great insights into Houdini’s mysterious ways. 😉 This was released soon after 15.5 was introduced so it’s the most up to date VEX Wrangles material available from SideFX. ------ Softimage Mailing List.
