Hi all,
cannot for the life of me figure out how to get the gaea node working. Can get parameters up if xml is generated but get an unhandled exception error everytime. Tried using legacy node types and still no joy. Have all correct licenses and tried on two separate machines and the same. Latest labs toolset installed and latest houdini production build 19.0531. Also Gaea is up to date. Please Help Me!!
cheers, Matt

Does anyone know of a way to read additional attributes from an HDA in unreal engines material editor?
Currently using all vertex color channels and Alpha but would like another channel if possible.
Tried with custom attributes but cant get it to work. Any help would be great

Been creating a tool that will create a river for a terrain. A part of my network makes the input curve always go downward by running a simple previous point position wrangle through a for each loop:

vector pos = 0;
pos = point(0, “P”, (@ptnum-1));
if (pos.y < @P.y)
{
@P.y = pos.y;
}

This works just as intended, however, only when the points of the input curve are below the origin (@P.y=0).
I have got round this by transforming the curve before the loop and transforming back by attribute (@xform) afterwards but can anyone explain why this was necessary? Cant for the life of me figure out why.

Me too, licenses are all installed but say not being used by any users. Houdini just keeps opening in apprentice. Uninstalled and removed all license files. Then reinstalled but did the same

Sorry for hijacking thread, but think this answers my question too. Will give this a try when i get back. Looking at the comparison, i can still export heightmaps of any resolution in the indie version, its only animation sequences thatare restricted right? Thanks ever so much for the info

Yep, my error is “cook error on input:”. Moves up the chain as i bypass nodes right up to the rgb inputs. Leads me to think there is something i need to do to the input nodes but i only have a heightfield and heightfield noise. Do i need to convert in someway before i save the image file?
