Hey guys

I'm new to Houdini and I'm struggling with importing some smoke I made.

I created some smoke in a new Houdini document, finished it. I've now imported an Alembic scene with its animations into a new scene.
I now want to place my smoke somewhere in that new scene that I've imported but I dont have a clue how to import the smoke into this new scene.

How would I do this?

Thanks guys

Just use file sop to import smoke sim from disk.

Where abouts would I put the file SOP?

Here is my scene

Thanks

Take a new Geometry container, dive inside and feed smoke sim path to file sop. Use transform either obj level or sop level to place smoke wherever you want it to be.
