nevermind, its working as expected. the emission color value in it self needs to be overexposed a bit work

Hey did anyone manage to recreate that additive look for light streaks?
In Mantra Ive achieved that by lowering the opacity and cranking up the emission (Ce). So overlapping geometry adds up and resulting in overexposed areas
I am trying my luck with mtlxsurface_unlit but it looks like emission is not multiplied by opacity beforehand, which results in very even emission, and I am not getting that overexposed look

usually when this happens it might be that something is up with the surface field.. just to make sure the Surface Volume parameter has to point to the complete tank surface, not only to a Border surface. T
Or the the boundaries are open. Check the Flip Object. I think the shelf builds a closed tank

in case Ive misread what you are trying to do. If you want to retime the generated mesh you are a bit out of luck.
Retime the points and mesh afterwards

whatever floats your boat.
Karma has the "overhead" to work in Solaris, which I find more and more useful even when running solo.
Must also say that by building up your scenes from ground up in solaris reaps way more benefits in the long run.
There are still gaps between Mantra and Karma, but those getting tighter with every release. Husk Procedurals are looking big!

I referred only to the UI visually. UX can be improved for sure in places, and I agree with a few of your points, e.g. better ramp controls or sliders that expand their range when you type a value outside the range.
dont they do that already?

gotta love those sub 100 post people demanding UI rewrites cause they used to their previous package.

you are able to treat rbd objects (when they are packed prims) like pop points. so point wrangle dop your way thru the bullet attributes!

You have access to geometry attributes with MaterialX, and everything else could be translated to MaterialX. There are the usual Math and Noise nodes. If you need some pointcloud lookups you could those in sops and pass an attribute.
