dear paulo i haven'd heard of a studio that is 100% on houdini.
for using houdini as a pipeline or backend i would say yes there are some studios.
there is a list on odforce whitch studios are using houdini but it's a bit outdated i think: http://odforce.net/wiki/doku.php?id=companiesusinghoudini [odforce.net]

sorry for this question
i have started this morning to learn a bit of python and i have got some troubles with HDA and pythonmodule.
what i want to do:
i have a HDA with a pythonmodule Function. this Function should access a custom Value in the Parameter Interface. how can i get the value?
i have used kwargs but in the meantime its now aaarrrggghhhh :-)

nice to hear that houdini is faster but seriously it's hard to judge when no benchmark files are available.
i think when the bitfrost team can release there custom gui it will be another game in the fx area. so in the current state houdini win's but next two years they have to take care what's coming.
they also have to watch the foundry maybe they buy or get a product from a studio.

i just wanted to play with SOHO sadly it's only accessible with a full licence (it makes sens because of miss usage, but still a export limitation of example 16k poly would be nicer:-).
so at the moment no play with soho :-/

i would like to see the integration of the cycles render into houdini because there won't be licences fees or conflicts with other company's when you want to deploy it directly in to houdini and the development is going on fast.
but the task for a solid integration is surly not small and takes some time.
for my point of view is that it makes for sesi only sense when they invest time in there product and not in others implementation.

Would be nice if we have 3 edit nodes one after another to be able to “consolidate them” into one single edit node with all the operations inside.
Mostly a cosmetic thing I know but it will also allow for better readability and layout of scenes.
hope it makes sense.
+1 count me in for this one :-)
i would like to see a single edit node with a list of all edits. when you select a line from the list it should highlight it on the viewport. or even better on selecting the node it will give you a color history(like when you use voronoi visualization) in the viewport. like that you can disable or delete some edits.

Can't Sidefx just buy Silo, since it's pretty much dead anyway. The way they use the same hotkey for multiple operations is such a relaxed way to model.
1:17 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjc7jCTgbys [youtube.com]
I know Silo is missing a lot of modeling tools and is buggy as hell.
But the tools and workflow they have would be the perfect addition to Houdini imho. Especially because it doesn't require a lot of hotkeys.
It's nice if all this can be in one superedit/classicmodel node.
Really curious if anybody has experience with Silo and what they think of it.
i would like to see a node based (open-gl) gui creater so you can create fast custom osd interfaces for houdini and maybe houdini engine. so we can make fast concepts of interfaces and distribute it per digital asset.
to have another product means the development resources is getting split ted and the base isn't the same. for me it's makes more sense to have all in one tool. like that i have always one link on my desktop and no switching and fiddling. :-)

some Informations about the cost.
Jepp it's higher then by ADSK. but what do you get?
In the Houdini Licences you have Unlimited Render Tokens and for the Job handling you will get HQueue for free.
the support Service is fast and Friendly.
my experience as a Apprentice User: I had found some time ago a bug made a bug report and sent it. 25min later feedback bug couldn't be found please use the newest daily build and give feedback. so i made from my 2 weeks old houdini a update to the newest one and yes the bug has been solved in that short time frame. my coloution: First update to a daily Build and when the bug is still there report it. :-)

Hello guys, It would be great to have a solver like “Lagoa” Multiphysics simulator in Softimage or the awesome “Molecular” in Blender to create realistic sand effect, snow, etc because actually it's not possible to do with this realism.
Lagoa : https://vimeo.com/13457383 [vimeo.com]
Molecular : http://www.3dvf.com/actualite-8249–neige-dans-blender-avec-molecular.html [3dvf.com]
Your updates are amazing Side Effects, Keep it up!
Best regards
Someone had made something simlar in Houdini but i couldn't find it :-/
