Hi Marsel,
you did not ask an important question. I would only use it if it is as open as houdini tools are. No blackbox where it matters.

kind regards

If houdini 16 hadn't got the new fur tools then I'd be chomping at the bit for an alternative, they were terrible compared to other systems (xgen, yeti etc).

Been using the new system for a couple of weeks on a fur job and there's a few little quirks but when you get your head round them its super powerful and directable.

I think you'd have to come up with something pretty ground breaking to outdo whats now included in the base package…

Thank you Hezza, the new tools definitely look like they are top of the line and no doubt they will be improved down the line. They are one of the reasons for the survey.
