Hello there,

Im trying to use copytopoints 2.0 to instance some animated alembics in my scene, but whatever try to do i have same weird result, every second frame only one time variation is visible in viewport. Seems only happens when i pack the result, on the copytopoints node or before too. I tried to shift time with abcframe intristic and with timeshift node too, same result. Maybe its just viewport bug, as it seems my point number is not changing even when it only show portion of my instances?
Sadly redshift doesn't handle packed alembics so i have to use packed prims.
Any idea for workaround or fix?
Houdini 18.0.348

Cheers,
Mark

I think Mantra and Arnold renders these packed prims correctly, so I believe its a viewport bug, but have it on two separate machines too with very different configs.
Also it does flicker same way in viewport with old copytopoints in houdini 17.5
