Hi all I'm trying to bake hair textures to cards I've generated. The built in Houdini baker requires a camera which I don't think is ideal. Saber mentions a technique in this video (at around the 30min mark) where he uses Mantra to sample at every normal to capture the data, but he doesn't show how. Can anyone offer any ideas on how to implement this? Thanks so much!

CREATING PROCEDURAL JAPANESE CASTLE Hi, In this tutorial you will learn how to create a procedural Japanese castle generation tool in Houdini 18. How to automatically generate interior and exterior using point instance. The method allows to add portions that can interact with the player (e.g., opening the doors). Provides the ability to speed up the creation of content for games. The tool can be reused in different projects with different types of stylization, because we will use prefabricated props. *Free Demo version: https://gumroad.com/rart#YcpjX *Full version Gumroad: https://gumroad.com/rart#iPTrw *ArtStation Marketplace: https://www.artstation.com/a/164141 Video Presentation WHAT'S INSIDE? 27 Video Chapters (12 hours of tutorial) Houdini 18 Project File Unreal Engine 4.24 Project File + all assets PDF Documentation (54 pages).

I thought this video by Seb Potter showing his procedural workflow for creating and populating low poly trees was pretty cool. https://youtu.be/006iPuxJyV0
