Python States - Change Advanced Drawable.render() to .draw()

  • The API hou.GeometryDrawable.render was renamed to draw
  • The Python state callbacks onRender/onRenderInterrupt was renamed toonDraw/onDrawInterrupt
  • Note: You will have to update your python states accordingly.

The Vellum Solver now supports sliding the target position along primitives for Attach to Geometry and Stitch Points constraints. The sliding rate can also be scaled by point attributes at simulation time, using the standard Attribute Promote methods from the Vellum Constraints SOP. The Vellum Solver has two methods for projecting the sliding position back onto the surface: Closest Point and Traverse Polygons, with the latter being more expensive but better behaved for concave target geometry.

The Python Script TOP node is now static by default. Old .hip files should still load and work the same since node previously stored with Automatic will update themselves to Dynamic to match the old behavior.

Change PDG_PYTHON for HQueue jobs on linux to prefer HFS python and fall back to HQClient python. This avoids library clashes with system python and HFS python.
