Bit late, but have just seen this. Did anyone manage to setup a London Houdini User Group at all?
Could be fun to meet up, plus any excuse for a drink or two!! :wink:

Looks pretty cool, although still not convinced. The progressive refinement is the coolest bit plus the direct raytracing, but Flowline could do implict surface rendering (w/o meshing) in 2006!! :shock:

Glue network constraints are only for bullet, not for the old RBD solver.Any similar solutions for the classic RBD solver at all?

Hey, this sounds like a pretty nice idea. An example file would be great if that's possible?
Technical Discussion » Realistic Blood Splat ...

Hey there
I'm trying to create a realistic blood splat effect using either particle fluids or POPS, but can't seem to get a good result. FLIP with ground collisions is too splashy & ditching the collision and using a wet map technique just seems to get me blobby results.
I'm trying to get something with spots of blood, streaks, smears, etc (like the 2d texture shown) but can't figure out how to do it with this about of detail. Any ideas?
Cheers!

Happy New Year all!
Hey, I seem to remember SideFX doing 2 sessions on maths/physics basics & their use with Houdini, just wondering if anyone went & had any info or courseware for it?
Cheers

Cheers for the info guys! I agree the stress calculation way does sound cool, but can imagine that would take a while to code. The voronoi method does sound more achievable - I'm doing this with a custom script already in Houdini, but only surface not volume-based, will have to have a look into this!

Hey guys
I've been reading the article recently posted on this site (http://www.sidefx.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1454&Itemid=68) [sidefx.com] about the use of Houdini in the game Killzone2 and am very interested in their shatter technique.
It states that they converted the geo to a volume and then used a VEX volume shader to shatter it and then converted it back to polys. Anyone done this before or could tell me (as a bit of a noob!) how to do this pls?
Cheers!
