Dynamics Chops

Hi,

I am trying to extract the transformation/rotation from a RBD object, and then bake and tweak the animation.

I was able to extract the information using the Dynamics CHOP, and then export it to an object.

I thought I was suppose to be RMB click on the CHOP node (I tried both Dynamics and Export node), select [Edit Data Channels] to tweak the animation keys.

But I keep getting the error message saying

Cannot edit: CHOP does not have enough data.

I even get the same error with the ExtractTranfroms sample from the Houdini help.

Did I miss something?

Attached is the test .hip file, I would appreciate if anyone have time to take a look and let me know what did I do wrong.

In the file, /obj/groundplane_object1 and /obj/tube_object1 are all RBD objects. /obj/box_object1 is the object that gets the channel exported from the CHOP.

Ultimately, I want to bake the RBD animation into keyframes into the box_object and then tweak the keys to my likings.

I am using Houdini 9.0.765

Thanks,

michael
