The LOP dialog for testing primitive patterns no longer expands "~" to the user's home directory path, allowing the use of "~" as a pruning operator to match the behavior of LOP node parameters.

Changed the %purpose auto collection to be slightly slower when doing a full scene traversal, but enormously faster when using it in conjunction with other pattern elements that restrict its traversal to only part of the scene graph.

20.0.164

Added a field to pdg.PathMap entries that specifies whether the mapping rule should be treated as a path prefix, suffix, or as any kind of substring in an input string. Previously the path mapper always treated mapping rules as substrings.

Fixed a few bugs related to Timeline Bookmarks:

  • The create/edit bookmark dialog can now be expanded properly
  • Hiding bookmarks now properly prevents interaction with them
  • Bookmarks are no longer hidden by the range slider in compact playbar mode
  • The Bookmark comment tooltip is properly removed after deleting a bookmark

Gas Seed Markers DOP should no longer crash if there is no pscale attribute and copy from nearest is enabled.

19.0.803

The unreal_datatable_rowstruct attribute that is generated when using a data table as geometry input has been renamed to unreal_data_table_rowstruct. Allow Houdini assets that output point clouds to be added to Unreal. When such an asset is added, it will generate a data table using the attributes of each point. The Houdini point clouds generated by data table inputs can be imported back to Unreal in order to generate the original input.

20.0.164

Promoted the "Flush data after each frame" parameter from the USD ROP onto the top level of the File Cache LOP. This allows the saving of very large animated scenes without running out of RAM. Also promoted the parameter to silence errors when USD file paths are derived from node paths, and surface errors from the contained USD ROP onto the File Cache node.
