thejamesporter Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 Hey guys, Help me understand something - I'm relatively new with Houdini and i'm tinkering around in my spare time. I'm learning about Voronoi fracturing. I have a grid (10 rows by 10 columns). Attached to that is a scatter node which is limited to only to a total count of 100. I'm looking to paint a colour onto the grid, so to the side, i've attached a colour node, turned everything black (0,0,0) and then attached a paint node. When I do this, crash. I've reduced the size of the grid, but it seems crazy. It crashes with such a small sized grid. I'm running Houdini Apprentice 16.0.504.20 on a 2015 Macbook pro. I should upgrade to Houdini 16.5 Apprentice, but something just makes me feel like this will not solve the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark01 Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 If you wish to paint where you want grid to fracture, I believe you should place the color1 and paint1 nodes before the scatter. - I'm fairly new to houdini too so people please correct me if I'm wrong?

thejamesporter Posted January 12, 2018 Author Share Posted January 12, 2018 Yes, it would be plugged into the scatter... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sepu Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 That version of H is buggy, so update your version to a newer one, 16.0.736 or 16.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
