Hey guys,
I recently have been going through the CMI hip tricks vol 4 erosion tutorial.  I get to where he starts running into
problems with the points not spreading.  He comes back and fixes the errors, and I also fix the same spots and still
nothing happens.  Just curious if anyone else has run into this issue, and if so how did you go about fixing it.

Hi David

I had 2 things wrong in that scene

the while VOP needed to be set as True==0
and in the vopsop1 I needed to change the point cloud texture to use the second input
op:`opinputpath(".", 1)`

if you need more help you can mail me directly at varomix@cmivfx.com

thank you

Great, I just sent over a simple scene file.  

Thank you.

inside the if-then block your're passing the point normals, you need to change that to point NUMBERS
see your email for details
cheers!!
