Softimage to Houdini transition guide

Hi Malcolm...

 

I will have a look tomorrow, in the mean time I want to start an intuitive with the Softimage ICE expert and help port these fundamental Softimage utilities we will end up doing again and again into Houdini.

 

 

 

Regarding the statistic tools you require to build the "Test random probability" i must confess I don't know… yet… Variance and Mean value AFAIK are not available nodes so you will have to build it yourself.

Do you know how to do ICE equivalent "Test random probability" on Houdini? 

 

Look at this example scene, dive inside VopSop and look in spreadsheet or display Age attribute (Display Options -> Markers > custom -> Age (or little icon: Display Custom Attributes in right menu in Scene View pane)) to see exact values.

And Data packaging is now done!!! 

I bet some Houdini artists will find a few nice tricks in this one.

I will be adding one more regarding modern approaches with Alembic files before I wrap this chapter. 

Enjoy
