Export Materials to Softimage


Recommended Posts

Well,

I'm just starting to get familiar with the exchange between both apps. For now I would like to know how I have to deal with material assignments in Houdini, so SI applies the Redshift materials I created in SI.

Actually I imagine it this way. In H I do specify which material goes to which face, I import the files via Alembic (Crate) and SI recognizes which texture goes into which group of the imported mesh.

Since I imagine the model will change a lot during production, assigning the materials on every import in SI seems to be out of the question.

How does this work practically? I assigned a material in H to the mesh before the alembic ROP I use for export. In SI the material shows up nowhere. Tried to assign it on a per point and primitve way. No difference.

Anybody an idea?

Cheers

Tom
