stu Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 Why not just use the VEX Global Illumination light shader instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doc Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 I think that script is a little old, so it may not be working properly in the current version. I'd suggest you create a very basic occlusion shader using the occlusion VOP. If you find it renders too slow you can try using point clouds to speed it up. I have some example of how to do this on the houdini exchange. just do a search for "point cloud presentation" and you should be able to find it.
