I had some issue using the Carve SOP trying to drive it with attributes.
Does anyone know how I could achieve a custom / randomized carve-amount per line?
I couldnt get it to work with point attributes nor with prim attributes… Or do i have to use a completely different Node?

Thanks

Carve SOP cannot use attributes for per-prim carves.

A foreach loop is required to do individual carve values per curve/surface.

Carve is verbified, so the foreach loop can be compiled to get more speed.

Ah crap, i was trying just that, to use an attribute transfer on a carve SOP but that does not work? No way to reveal curves with an attribute transfer using the carve sop?

Cheers,
