are you using houdini 17.5 or 18 ? can you post screenshot of your shader network ?
Arnold GPU is in “Alpha state” and completly based on Optix, with has already a lot limitation from nvidia site. also Arnold GPU comes with a lot of limitation :
https://docs.arnoldrenderer.com/display/A5ARP/Supported+Features+and+Known+Limitations [docs.arnoldrenderer.com]
also houdini18 has lots of heavy changes with lops/rendering etc.. and it breaks stuff. which daily build are you using ?
try first to get it to work with Arnold CPU, so you know if your setup is working, before you try it with a “beta” software.

Will check that out thanks, Do you guys see yourself including Arnold lights and shaders? We have existing assets that would be great to transfer without rebuilding them.
currently, we using it only USD layout. for lighting and rendering, too many tools missing. for now, we stick with the “legacy” tools for rendering.

It's very much a work in progress for 18.0. It'll eventually become much like the Render View.
right, i hope for the next version we will get more “render tools” ?

the missing render settings is a current feature like a missing renderview in Lops. you can play in live render viewport but otherwise Lops rendering with any renderer is pretty much useless. for now, Lops is only good for layout and USD file creation. let's hope, houdini18.5 will get some solid render tools.

scene import should be last option. you should start to build your houdini scene complety in LOPs.
you can use standard lops light, which works with arnold.
still i found the Lops lights in arnold behave much different then “regular” arnold lights.

this view does not work with openGL. only with a live rendering from a render engine. its bare bone and so laggy, it un-usable.
but i didn't try it on lastest build.

my wish would be a mac osx version !
older houdini needs 20 sec to render a black frame and newer build crashes on installtion…
so my wish for houdini 13 is a “mac version”
