Hi everyone,

Anyone knows how to write new ops for Houdini? Is it possible with Python, or only C++?





Thanks.

Hi,

Generally modeling nodes for the start. Like all kinds of selection ops, loop/ring, and then spherify, relax, and lots more. How do I go about writing these?




Thanks.

I would consider knowing an application better before jumping into coding it. It may occur you code things that are already there, or that don't fit into it, what do you think?

You are right. I just wanna try writing a few for practice. I use python in Maya for a long time so I thought maybe I could write ops in Houdini too.



Thanks.

If you choose “New Operator Type” in the File menu you can create python operators.
