Houdini 18.0.475 | The Agent Edit SOP now allows the Channel Name parameter to specify a list or pattern of channels, for setting multiple channels to the same value. | Fri. May 22, 2020 |
 |
Houdini 18.0.475 | Bumped the HDK_API_VERSION for changes to the signature of GusdPrimWrapper::unpack() that enable multithreaded geometry conversion. | Fri. May 22, 2020 |

|
Houdini 18.0.475 | The Unpack USD SOP now only sets the usdxform attribute for point-based prims. Other prims (e.g. spheres) already have a primitive transform and are handled by SOP Import's transform compensation option. | Fri. May 22, 2020 |
|
Houdini 18.0.475 | Fixed a SOP Import issue where the USD Attributes mode was unable to import and override attributes from the prim's schema that SOP Import already authors a value for by default (e.g. 'basis' for curves). In this situation, SOP Import also now ensures that the attribute's type matches the expected type from the schema (e.g. a 'basis' attribute would be imported as a 'token' instead of the default 'string[]'). | Fri. May 22, 2020 |

|
Houdini 18.0.473 | Fixed a bug in karma where setting SSS limit greater than 0 would either cause PBR SSS to pick up indirect bounce from wrong location, or Random Walk SSS to mix in diffuse bounce and appear overly bright. Also fixed indirect bounce from non-SSS BSDFs having incorrect amount of contribution in a compound BSDF with SSS (most noticeable under IPR). | Wed. May 20, 2020 |
