Hello

I am new to houdini. I needed to send out an animated curve fom Maya to Houdini. I read that the best way of doing this was to use an Alembic. I managed to do this. But i am now stuck.

I was wondering if you knew how to convert an alembic to a .bgeo in houdini. I have been trying teach myself. But I am struggling with the alembic work flow. I downloaded a project and they used a bake animation curve bgeo files. I want to replace there curve with my own. I would greatly appreciate the help.

Hi
If you want to replace the bgeo curves with your alembic animated curve its not necessary to convert alembic to bgeo.
you should use an alembic node instead of file node and if your alembic is a packed primitive (is just shown as one point) you should use an unpack sop.
