Can you explain how this would be done? I only see Generate by Density option on the Scatter node. Thanks
simple example for scattering based on color this doesnt have solution to the original post, this is just for Isaac's question

Hi Guys,
Have a quick question.
Can I submit a set of tools used to solve a problem? for example something like the labs tree generation tools which is combination of mulitple sops used together to create tree. Or it should be a single HDA?
Thanks, Very much excited about this contest.

Hi guys,
Any one have ideas to change this default "save to library" path to a different location.
I have my custom tools in a different path so I want the default path to point that path.

Thanks in advance

If you use Nuke then you will easily overcome this soon. Just get used to SOPs and understand the concept of attributes. This will give u solid base then you can start learning particles then move on to other dynamics.

Hi guys,
I am using houdini indie 18.5.532
I wanted to create a hda to generate simple animation curves without manual keyframing using the chops.
I have somewhat got what i want there are few tweaks i want to do but unfourtuantely houdini is crashing again and again when im trying to work with the VOP network inside CHOPs I have attached my HDA if someone want to try it out. It also crashes when i try to change the framerate. im trying to make it work regardless of the FPS of the scene.

Hi Guys,
Im facing this weird problem, There is no allow editing of contents option on the right click menu,anyone knows what could be the reason for this, I have tried with multiple hdas none of them has that available.
I have googled this seems like no one faced this before. this is first time im seeing this.
Thanks.

Hi guys,
Im planning to build a pc for me and also gonna buy indie license,
i will use this pc mostly for motion graphics work, particles, small scale flip and high res pyro as well.
i have choosen the nvida 2070 gpu
for me for gpu rendering but after the leaks im now waiting for the new generation gpus from nvidia.
i have googled a lot about choosing the right cpu,still i couldn't decide which one to buy
amd ryzen 9 3900x
or
intel 10700k
i know amd has more cores which can be utilised well by houdini. but still lot of my friends suggest intel over Amd based on their user experience. also i have found this comparison
here [cpu.userbenchmark.com]
in which amd is way to down than than intel. But everyone over youtube suggesting AMD.
so i really need suggestion from you guys who are actual houdini users instead of blindly believing in youtubers and online database..
Any advise will really help me a lot as this is gonna be a very big investment for me.
Thank you.

All the best everyone.
Entry for the day here , Procedural mud material mantra.
