I am a learner of Houdini. I am basically a maya user.
In maya, I can render CSG object with the aid of the Mtor plugin. Is it possible to render CSG object in Houdini with rman? Does anyone know how?

Any help will be highly appreciated!

There is no direct support (no GUI) for it, nope. Although you probably could do it if you used the pre- and post- scripts to include RIB snippets with the appropriate statements. Honestly it's the first time in many years that I''ve heard of someone interested in CSG rendering. What are you doing?

Thank you for your rely! I am actually doing noting with CSG at the moment. I am just interested to know if Houdini can render CSG because it should be quite good if I want to break a geometry into a few pieces. I tried that in Maya by using MtoR. It worked PREFECTLY when I tried to break a table into a few pieces!
