hi guys I did some render test with houdini and maya redshift renderer. I made particle in houdini then rendered it in maya using houdini engine and redshift proxy file. This image is that I tested to compare houdini redshift render and maya redshift render. A is houdini redshift B is maya redshift with importing particle by houdini Engine C is also maya redshift with importing particle by redshift proxy When I use B, alpha attribute for per particle is different from A and C. Is there any way to correct the alpha attribute? Thanks.

Hello, How do you render multiple redshift Rops? There are several ways to do this with mantra nodes, but none of them seem to work with Redhift nodes. Thanks.

Hi everyone, been having an issue with REDSHIFT rendering. a very simple scene, a box with the bottom 2 points moved. simple glass material applied and the refraction is causing some issue. attached the HIP file as well. since the BLACK patches seem to be rays going straight to the environment (when i change environment color, these black patchs will change color as well). So i assumed its refraction cutoff (maximum refraction reached), so i have set both on ROP (redshift render node) and Material level maximum refraction + reflection to 100 , 100 bounces. but does not seem to be helping at all. i have been playing around with the settings on both materials and render settings, but can not seem to be able to get rid of the BLACK patches. i am rendering with REDSHIFT 2.6 in case that matters. any help will be very appreciated. testing.hip

Hello I am trying to render a pyro simulation in Redshift. I created a volume material in RS and applied to my Pyro import in Houdini.However I've got a message saying "Failed to find volume file. The file will be empty." I am not sure what I am doing wrong as I watched every possible tutorial about it and the steps seem to be correct. Can anyone help me figuring out what is wrong? I am uploading the file for reference. Many Thanks D Candle_03_Test.hiplc

Hey, here's a project I've been working on for a long time, procedural Jellyfish with procedural animation based on source points. Please let me know how I can improve this. DHR -
Hello wizards, I am about to build my first PC ever, I have no clue on hardware specification stuff, I have like $3000-$4000 budget and I want to invest my money wisely that's why I need your help. I would use this PC for Houdini and Redshift mainly, mostly motion design and a little bit of simulations, and i want to be able to upgrade this setup overtime. I also dont know if I am missing something important. This is what i came up with: Processor AMD Ryzen 9 3900X, S-AM4, 3.80GHz, 12-Core, 64MB L3, con Disipador Wraith Prism RGB Motherboard Gigabyte ATX X570 UD, S-AM4, AMD X570, HDMI, 128GB DDR4 for AMD RAM Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4, 2400MHz, 32GB (4 x 8GB) GPU: Gigabyte NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER Gaming, 8GB 256-bit GDDR6, PCI Express x16 3.0 HDD SSD Samsung 860 PRO, 2TB, SATA III, 2.5" Liquid Cooling Raidmax TORNADO RC240 Case Corsair Carbide SPEC-054 Power source Corsair CX750M 80 PLUS Bronze, ATX, 120mm, 750W I appreciate any tips!

Hello guys. I have a question related to the builds. Can Houdini 18 run a redhift build for Houdini 17.5? Because I am still thinking on jumping to Houdini 18 but it depends on this subject. Thanks for your time.

Hi I'm trying to render Z depth for a smoke in Houdini via Redshift, it's look like working fine with object, but somehow not working with a Pyro smoke. It's look like Redshift doesn't "see" the volume, any idea why? Thank you

Hey my Render View is working absolutely fine but if I wanna render to Disk I always get a short freeze followed by an Error: Error opening the tile device. I’m using RedShift V. 2.6.41 and Houdini 17.5.173 Hope somebody can help me with that.

Hi guys! I installed Deadline recently and normally I have a multiple RS Rops where I define the render folder path with a string parameter in a null node. The thing is when I submit the render job to Deadline with the expression that I use for output I'm getting this error: (Syntax error - extra tokens detected in expression (/out/Redshift_ROP_HQ_PMs_DWAA/RS_outputFileNamePrefix)). I 'm defining the folder paths in the null like this: $HIP/render/ And the rest of the expression on the RS Rop is like this: `chs("../RENDER_PATHS/render_folder")`$HIPNAME/$HIPNAME.$AOV.$F3.exr Somebody knows how I have to change the output expression in order to get the render correctly? Here is a screenshot from the expression: Thanks a lot! -
Hey party people, Has anyone developed a solid worklflow for getting .sbsar files to work with redshift inside houdini? Did some research on it, but it seems like I am not the only one struggling with it! Excited for your opinions Cheers, Felix

Hi guys! I've been hitting this wall project after project. I am not good at scripting, but i was wondering if a script or a function could be done, or if it's a crazy idea. Well, usually when I recieve a model from a modeler, the guy has already assigned materials to the model, that houdini will read like shop_materialpath. Ok, now, if the model has 10 or 20 different shop_materialpath, it's really painful to check 1 by 1 the names and make 1 by 1 the shaders with the same name under the mat context. Do you think there is a workaround in scripting to make this process automatic? What is your workflow about this subject? Have a good day guys, if I get anything working I'll post it here, since I think it could be a really cool tool for everyone!

Hi all, Excuse my lack of understanding, however I have attempted to google with no avail. I have an alembic file that I've imported however I cannot for the life of me work out how to assign/apply a material to it - using the material node doesn't work. I've read about unpacking or converting the alembic but this doesn't alter what I'm seeing on the render. There must be a simple solution? If it helps, I'm using Houdini 17.5.173 and Redshift 2.6.41. ~ If anyone has some ideas please comment! Thanks

What should I do to move houdini particle attribute(ex: motion blur, pscale) to maya redshift? I made particle in houdini to rs and moved it to maya redshift

I am reaching the final stages of a personal project of mine and I was wondering if this render times were okay for the setup I have since I swapped to redshift 3 days ago: 1070 ti 8gb ryzen 9 3900x 32gb ddr4 3200mhz It takes 40 to 50 minutes to render the following (no DOF nor mortion blur): NOTES: The scene consists on bolts and sparks with incandescent material + the emisssive sword, 2 Volumes (you are looking at the smallest one which is around 8million voxels) + 3 mesh lights inside the capsule (bolts, sparks and a scorch on the impact area of the bolt) and 3 others spread around the scene (the Highlighted ones) EDITED: NOT EDITED: These are my settings: In all mesh lights I copied the override sample values because I dont trust it xd and all have 64 bounces for volumes too. I hope more experienced artist can help me out with this one if you find something odd in my project. As always, thank you very much EDIT: No, I wont be using the Optix denoiser and this is how the noise on my scene looks:

Hello! I want to change Redshift 's emission weight parameter by attribute, but this parameter does not have input to connect it. So, I tried to create attribute of the same name of the parameter , which is emission_weight, but it does not override it. Please help me! -
Hey guys, I need to send a large point cloud which instances geo to the cloud to render. The problem I'm having is the instancefile attribute is absolute, and once the project is uploaded to the cloud render environment the path is no longer relevant/correct. Redshift does not seem to expand strings at render time, so $HIP or $JOB do not get evaluated afaik. I've also tried setting the path to a node within the .hip file. For example, this will work: M:/_Work/_Personal/sandbox/rs_proxy_relative/rs_proxy/teapot.0001.rs But this will not: \$HIP/rs_proxy/teapot.0001.rs Nor will this: /obj/teapot_rs/OUT/ I've attached a super simple setup where I get instancing working using an absolute path (it references the output of the RS Proxy Output SOP). Is there any way to get Redshift to to instance from a path that is relative to the project folder, or a node within the .hip file? Or has anyone had experience getting Redshift instances rendering on Gridmarkets? Thanks all! Note: I've also tried using the instance obj node (see v002 hip attachment). BUT the issue I run into with this is it maxes out my GPU's VRAM at render time, whereas using an absolute path with instancefile renders just fine with the ~6m points I need to instance on. rs_proxy_relative_v001.hip rs_proxy_relative_v002.hip

Brand new to redshift and am trying to recreate something that seemed to only work in mantra. Basically just want to take a heightfield and control the materials on the heightfield with a layer mix per each element (debris, bedrock, etc.) which was easy enough to do by binding in the attributes as the bias. I've been looking around and it looks like instead of a bind you need to use a pointlookup and there are a few different substitutes for the layer mix in redshift it seems. Simple sample file attached. Why doesn't it work? RSPointLookup.hiplc

Hi. Need help ! I am instancing redshift proxy object (Human character with primitive groups like shirt, pant, skin.. etc ) using "instancefile" attribute and using stylesheet to render it. I am not able to access subtargets and randomise any material parameter (like randomising basecolor of subtarget shirt or pant). I am able to do this using mantra and stylesheet but similar approach (targets and subtarget) is not working for redshift. In the stylesheet, the Target is set to point instances; I tried accessing primitive groups on the instanced object by adding subtargets to the target but it does not work. Can someone please help me with this. Thanks
