nas7ybuttler Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I'm working on a domino project, and want to write each tile combination to disk (ie. I would like to write out one domino that has the numbers 0-0,0-1,......,4-6,5-6,6-6) so that I can eventually instance them. I have an HDA that I created with two parameters, 'topnum' and 'botnum' that allows me to control the number combinations on the tiles. Now to write them to disk I can drop down a file SOP, set the top and bottom numbers to 0-0, name the bgeo file 0_0.bgeo, and repeat this process 48 times for every possible combination. This is tedious and boring, and doesn't seem to be the houdini way of doing things. How should i go about automating the process of writing all this geometry to disk?

edward Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Use the Geometry ROP. In your file name, have a back tick expression that maps from $F to the required numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
