For OS Sierra licensing problems, as a last resort, you could add a mapping to your /etc/hosts file. You just need to add this line to the file:
127.0.0.1 name-of-my-machine.local

In your camera, go to View Tab and enter an image on the Background Image parameter.
If you want a solid color, you can create it on COPs

We believe that we have now fixed our Apprentice License Server.

In order to clear your machine of the faulty license you were issued earlier please delete your “licenses” or “licenses.local” file. This is located in :

On Windows: C:\Windows/keys/

On Linux: /usr/lib/sesi/

On Mac: /Library/Preferences/sesi/
(do not confuse this location with /users/username/Library/Preferences).

Once this file is deleted please install your Houdini Apprentice license as usual.

Thank you for your patience on this issue…

AFAIK there is no way to make this option permanent.

You could add the hscript neteditor command to your 123.cmd:

neteditor -N 0 -d <desktopname> <panetab>

Yup, right click on the network pane (not on the nodes) and select Viewing Controls->Display Options. Then, in the grid and snapping tab, toggle off Snap to Related Tiles.

It might be a raytracing bias problem, since your geometry is quite large.
Try increasing it in the shading tab of your rop to 0.1 (seems to work for me)

A scene file will be most helpful.
Though, for proper testing, I recommend putting down a camera and a mantra node and use those for rendering, rather than View:Mantra

Are you using a download manager? (like Tweak, FlashGet, SpeedBit, GetRight, etc). They seem to get in the way.

Please disable all the real time virus scanners in your machine, they are known to mercilessly search for viruses in our code (Avast is the most famous culprit).

Clear the cache on your browser (to ensure that you are accessing the page, rather than a cached version).

If you are running Windows Live Essentials, you might need to uninstall it (we have reports of it being incompatible with Houdini)

On any float parameter, the new behaviour in H11 is to show full precision if it is in “expression” mode. Just left mouse click on the parameter name to get it back to “normal” mode.

You can right mouse click on the handle and toggle off “Attach to Geometry” ( or use the ' shortcut) and reposition it.
