Hey peternicolai, haven't been here in a while, I've just seen your answer. Thank you! I'll look into this partition stuff.
Houdini Engine for Unreal » Unreal 5 - Houdini Engine - Static meshes

Hello guys.
I'm playing with Unreal 5 and Houdini Engine. And I have a problem.
The static meshes produced (or inside, unbaked) by the hda's do not show in game mode.
I have a building generator which places some instances in the scene, static meshes and simple door blueprints.
The blueprints work, the static meshes do not. When I press the "G" only their shadow shows.
When I play, they do not appear at all. Their collisions are there, though. In normal viewport anything is ok.

Hello. I have installed the latest H 18.596 and Sublime Text 4 (on windows 10). For some reason in this formula I cannot use Sublime as an external vex editor anymore. If I use "Alt+e" to open the external editor Houdini spits this in console:
Failed to run C:/Program with error 2: The system cannot find the file specified.
Argument list:
0: C:/Program
1: Files/Sublime
2: Text
3: 3/sublime_text.exe
4: C:/Users/User/AppData/Local/Temp/houdini_temp/hfs4872-12.tmp.vfl
Houdini 16 .5.996 is working with the same Sublime 4 just fine

I devised a method for filling space with random sized boxes.
Not using the “cut in half and recursively cut the resulting halves” algorithm which causes a noticeable “cut in half” pattern.

Yes, thank you, I know about the stash node, but (if I'm not wrong) this is a new node and the “null locking” was part of the workflow since forever, it was “delete history” Houdini style.

Hello everybody.
I've encountered something very troubling.
I've had a few locked nodes (basically nulls) holding some pieces of geometry in a hip file.
And now that I've opened the file after a while the nulls are still there but their content is zero.
Basically the nulls lost their locked content.
If this is a bug I think it's very serious.
I need the locked geometry as an example input geo for various stuff.
It is a bug or what?
Can I do something to bring back the geometry?

Hello guys.
I thought of showing you the roof generator that I'm working on.
And, while I'm at it, to ask you some questions…
First one: how one can approach the UV mapping of this thing?
As you can see is far from ok. I tried a gazillion things
but none of them seems to work ok so far.
And the last question (see last image): Maybe I'm stupid,
but why is the grid in the perspective view up in the air?
It should be in the plane between the roof and the walls
(where the roof starts)…
