How can I save my own rman shop which is translated from Vex builder? Because I just want to save the rman shops for my future usage. I tried “save to palette” but it disappeared when I create a new scene!

Does anyone know the proper way of doing it?

sometimes I saw the thumbnail of my shop on the shader palette. but whenever I create, the error message comes out! it says “palette entry refers to unknown SHOP type.”

How can I save my own shop on the disc? and How can I import it back to Houdini?

Hi..

You should be able to simply drag and drop your shop into a pallete, do make
sure the palette is in your home folder.
You can bring up the shader palette from the main tools menu or by using alg+g.
Then simply drag and drop you shader.

Hope that helps.

Thanks thomaskinga
But Only the vex surface shaders work! I could not get Rman suface shader worked. (i could never drag that rman shader into the scene after I created a new scene) Did you get that working with Rman shader? Does anyone have any idea?(or rman shaders are unable to be saved on Palette)

I did not get it working because I chose “current Hip file only”. It worked after I have chosen “$home”.

Thank God
