LaidlawFX Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 We have maya animations with visibility animated trying to figure out how to import that info from the maya abc export with the write visibility option on. got this look up from the camera imports, not sure what to mod in order to get visibility out of a geo cache. pwd().alembicGetCameraDict(ch("fileName"), "/renderCam/renderCamShape", ch("frame")/ch("fps")).get("focus") Not familiar with the abc formatt that much.

johnLIC Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Did you ever figure this out? I am wondering how to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LaidlawFX Posted May 12, 2016 Author Share Posted May 12, 2016 Sometime back it started working magically in Houdini. I don't know when, lol. The alembic import has gotten dramatically better since I made that post. You can pull most attributes native-ly in Houdini from a regular alembic now. On the alembic sop if exported from Maya there is the Use Visibility toggle that worked. Also all the information on the alembic sop is open sourced if you are feeling really adventurous. https://github.com/alembic/alembic/tree/master/houdini/SOP_AlembicIn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
