Atom 717 Report post Posted December 17, 2017 (edited) I am trying to make a system where I have a low-res UV set that gets projected onto a subdivided grid. But I don't want the UVs to be stitched together (which subdivide seems to do). My goal is to displace sculpt by moving the low-res blocks around. I have a basic setup almost working but as you can see in the image there are still areas that are displaced when black and lowered when white. I would like the system to use the color luminance to control the height of the displacement. ap_uv_sculpt_like_blender.hipnc Edited December 18, 2017 by Atom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atom 717 Report post Posted December 18, 2017 (edited) I came up with an alternate attempt but it still does not seem correct... There just does not seem to be a way to keep the UVs from subdividing. ap_uv_sculpt_like_blender_121717.hipnc Edited December 18, 2017 by Atom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrisdunham95 15 Report post Posted December 18, 2017 If you move your attrib promote to after your subdivide I get cleaner results, but I'm not sure if that's what your after exactly but thought id mention it incase Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Atom 717 Report post Posted December 18, 2017 (edited) Thanks, that does help it look better. I am trying to emulate a modeling technique from another software package inside of Houdini. But separating Uvs from Subdivided faces seems almost impossible in Houdini. I can model in the other package and bring them into Houdini but it would be nice to have a Houdinicentric solution to avoid the export/import step.
