HI,

I don't know if it's on the way but since Houdini 12 is out i would be nice to have the HOT working this release.


Thanks

Yeah looking for this also

Yes please. H12 is excellent but I'm really missing HOT.

Hey. Yeah same here. I've tried compile it against houdini 12 and this is the error I'm getting:

It's whining that it can't find GB/GB_AttributeRef.h.

It seems that things have changed with regards to GB/GB_AttributeRef.h and according to the docs 'significant changes' would have to be made to code making use of it.

I'll dick around with it in the next few evenings, but I guaratee you that I'll just be running in circles not knowing what's what. If someone a bit more qualified that myself could take a look at it that would be just super!
If I make any progress I'll contribute it back asap.

With Houdini 11.1 it compiles just fine on my machine following the same steps.

EDIT: I was just reading the link I posted above and the first thing they say is:

We realize that you may not have the time or resources to change all your code at the current time. In order to facilitate making the change, you can define HDK_RELAXED_GB in your make (or in your code).

Lol. So I'll try what they say first I guess.

EDIT: Woops, sorry, I'm kind of updating this as I find stuff. I probably should wait until I have my head around it first. The link I posted above is to hdk11 chages not 12. So that should affect HOT since it compiles just fine with Houdini 11.1. I'll come back and post more later. IF I find out more. If I don't it means I gave up.

Make sure you read these two pages first:

Yup. I had just gotten to them... Eeesh. This does require someone more qualified than me.

In '/opt/hfs12.0.543.9/toolkit/include/' 'GB/' doesn't even exist anymore at all!

Thanks for your help!

[edward]

Yep, that's what it means when they say there's a "new" geometry library.

Whoohooo!!!
Thanks Herr Schnellhammer

Hi Christian.
Thanks for this version...but, why is it that in your binary, there are less dlls and files than in previous HOT versions?
In fact there is no dll folder, which is a folder you usually have to point at when installing HOT for Houdini...

I was working on a modified version of the HOT to test different types of multithreading for the ocean calculation.
These files represents this version and that's why the output binaries differs to the original HOT.
The source just includes the SOP deformer and the vex function for deforming and displacement. The SOP deformer provides a "Threaded" parameter to turn on a multithreaded calculation.

If you prefer the base HOT implementation, feel free to take my SOP deformer source code to see the changes needed for the new H12 geometry library.
