Hi!

I've used other packages before, but I'm totally new to Houdini.
In the tutorials they use blinn and phong materials, but I don't see them in my install…

Could someone give me a clue?

:roll:

Go to the Material pane. On the left tree view, choose General > Basic Surface. Drag it into the right side. Now click on it to show its parameters. Under the Specular tab, change the Specular Type menu to Blinn or Phong.

Thank you so much, edward!
That did the trick ;-)
