Hi,
You need to convert the packed alembics to polygons with the `Convert` node. An unpack before that can be useful if you want to transfer the `path` attribute to the polys.
Cheers,
Mate

You don't have to use convert. The issue is that you are making polysoups.
Change poly soup primitives to "no poly soups."
