Is there any way to bake out sim files out of Pops
Hey :) I'm playing with wxPython .... created a shelf tool with basic code, I got this error, anyone can guide me to sort it out. Traceback (most recent call last): File "tool_6", line 1, in <module> File "D:/PROGRA~1/SIDEEF~1/HOUDIN~1.374/houdini/scripts/python\wx\__init__.py", line...
Hi :) Apologies if these questions have been answered elsewhere - I have searched, I promise! ;) 1. I can't find a way to make settings (specifically, non-fullscreen size & position and the network editor's grid size) persist between sessions??? I've never known a program ignore my wishes...
Hi! I'm in video 34, in the end of the long process of creating the audience and its custom shader... it was a fun ride and everything was going on ok just until the moment when I pressed "render"... my audience renders... WHITE!!!! In the few seconds (or less, really...) that the render takes...
Hi, I am working through the tornado VTMs, and I have arrived at the one covering sprites. Unfortunately, I cannot figure out how to render particles generated by the Particle SOP as sprites in H9.5. Is this even possible anymore?
Hello forum, I am facing a array of problems with Houdini, completely out of the blue. Houdini was installed in my machine (windows 7, 32bit) few months ago and it was running without any problem, until last week. It was already open at the time where I tried to open another session but...
Hello Dear members, I was going through the video tutorial head modeling, after following some time when i reach mouth shaping it always crashes and give me error in console "Event queue full. Event dropped. UI_EVENT_ ENABLE to OPUI_NodeFeel" , kindly guide me . regards my system specs...
Hey everyone, So, I'm working on a planetarium dome projection project and i'd really like to use Houdini. There is a Mental Ray lens shader that can emulate a 180degree fisheye lens. I'm wondering if there is a way to do this in Houdini. There is a lens_curvature parameter that is can be...
are the shaders build within the 3dbuzz "hdri shader development for mantra" dvd usable for PBR rendering ? thx
I've found a way to add subdivisions, numerically, l to a primitive but they won't show and I can't select them in the viewport even with the display set to show wireframe and shade. I've tried using the sculpting tool and it doesn't appear to be doing anything (might be because the subdivisions...

Hi all, These days i am testing the possiblity to export scene from Houdin to Maya and vice versa. But I got some problem here, can anyone came across these problem and can help me out? Thanks!!! When trying to export a simple bone chain and a rigid bined skin from maya2010 to houdini10, the...
hiyas. due to my really badly limited broadband (2 gig a month :eek: ) i was wondering if the non-commercial version of Houdini came with good files to for the complete beginner to Houdini. I will have to head down to the library to download it. My broadband limit is almost empty. The VTMs...
Hi All- Following along quite well and started to think I was getting a grasp on things, so I decided to modify my bleachers. Steve and Jason create a stepped bleacher system with right angles, but right angles don't render too well IMHO, and I thought I would add some beveled edges. Sounded...
Hey all, new here and first post. Nice to see a forum that is populated and current. Using Apprentice and the FBX Export option is grayed out - is that because that's considered an commercial export format and I'm using a non-commercial version or do I need to adjust my scene in some manner to...
There are some areas where it is impossible to paint or delete weights because some edges seem to have weights associated with other unselected bones. Is there a way of deleting ALL weights for all bones at once? Something seems to be completely messed up with my weight maps ...

I have downloaded the free apprentice version of houdini and it work fine for a while.But now, every time i start houdini the material palette in the bottom right pane doesn't load, it just shows whatever was on my desktop at the time. If i click either the material pallette or the tree view in...
Hello- I'm following steve and Jason along in the TD series and I'm going just fine, but Houdini has been crashing quite a bit and I've lost some work, but that's fine, since i'm learning. I'm on video 9 making the Character Digital Assets and I've successfully created my character otl, but...
I'm wondering if I am crazy?! I'm having no luck finding a way to view my textures in the viewport. I've tried turning on Display textures in the Misc. tab under display options, projected textures. I'm following Steve along in the TD series and I am on movie 8 of Vol.1. Am I missing...
I'm having problems selecting things in the channel editor. It seems like 60% of the time, when I switch to the Channel Editor view, and I have various keyframes in the graph, it won't let me de-select things. So if I try and click in an empty part of the graph, at least one keyframe element...

I'm trying to paint the weights on my auto rig character. I seem to have run into a problem with the leg mirroring, I'm getting a distortion on the right leg when the left leg is lifted up, and I can't figure out why it's happening. The only thing I can think of doing is adding a capture layer...
