Is there some way to turn off the “Kinematic Override Capture” warning at the top of the viewport. I don't use Houdini's animation or capture tools so I'm not sure why its always on but I can't find a way to turn it off.
Thanks, Kevin

Thanks. 376 worked fine, as have all versions since 13. I uninstalled H and tried reinstalling 376 but no luck so I emailed support.

After installing .401, Houdini will open only in Apprentice even though Lic Admin says all HD licenses are running. Anyone else having this problem?

Thanks!

I liked implementation of plasticity in the old cloth solver too. In the recent technical discussion there was a nice example of a guardrail deformation by an intern (John I think) but it hasn't been posted.
Good luck, Kevin

I'm using the latest drivers, 5.5.28. Viewport permformance is noticably improved w/ H13.

The K4000 has never been that great of a card imho.

Nope, no rgb, just an alpha that oddly shows up in the color channels.

This asset only renders the alpha channel for me. Anyone else having any problem with it rendering? I'm using the trial version in HoudiniFX non-commercial.

Houdini Indie and Apprentice » keeps wanting to download non-comm license

Anybody know how to get Houdini to open the paid Appentice instead of the free, non-rendering version (with a valid license and server installed)?

Update to new daily build with Apprentice HD (paid, non-comm.) which opened as Houdini Master when H12 first came out. After update, it won't render b/c it can't find a license server, i.e, is now opening as unpaid Apprentice. Went through the license and server key reload but no luck.

Licensing is always a major time sync. And rreally SideFX, its not that hard to figure out unambiguous product naming schemes; I mean what is Apprentice HD?

Thanks,
Kevin

Thanks WhoDjini, Sequences work like a charm, just wish I could grab the occasional .mp4 or .mov and run with it. Kevin

Hi,
File chooser shows all video files (any format) as “error opening file.” Is this a limitation of Apprentice? I am able to open and display image files with no problem. It's just .mov, mpg, etc.

Thanks, Kevin

I'm wondering if there is a catalogue of example settings for common objects, e.g., a silk scarf or rubber tire. A reference of the object, material, clothsolver, etc settings people have used. I'm trying to create heavy sail cloth and I thought someone might have already worked out the stretch, shear, bend, etc.
Thanks,
Kevin

The icons for any toolbar are blank. I downloaded Apprentice a couple nights ago (v11 H-Master). The pull down menus and tabs appear to be normal.

Thanks, Kevin
