I am learning how to use the “mouse” chop. I could see the channels moves as I move my mouse. but I still could not record the mouse motion into the channel while I plug the “ record” chop after “mouse” chop. whenever I pressed the play button, the mouse channel stops to response to my mouse motion.

Can anyone tell me why? I am using HOudini master 6.0.304.

thank you for your attention!

Hi

You might not see anything happen on the first pass. First set the playbar to play only once. the default is loop. hit play once, probably nothing happens. hit play again (without resetting the playbar) and your channel should get recorded. If that doesnt work, just press and hold “right arrow” (next frame) instead of hitting play

Hope this helps

cheers

oh one more thing after you're done recording, don't forget to set the record mode to off. Also lock your record chop or you will lose the channel when you hit reset to first frame (<<)

Yes!
It finally works after I hold the right arrow button!
Thanks!
