Having problems with an .obj in my Houdini project.
I import my .obj using a geo node, point it at the right file and it imports and behaves as expected.
However, when I progress the timeline to frame 2 the object disappears and I get an error that mentions:
Geometry not cooked
Unable to read file
I can't see any obvious reason for this and my google fu was fruitless. There are no spaces in the filepath. I'm guessing it's something obvious but at the moment I am none the wiser. TIA.
I guess there is a number in your file name You have to uncheck “Show sequences as one entry” in the open file dialog when loading your geometry. If you don't, the last number in your file name will be interpreted as a frame number and Houdini will replace it with the $F expression ( which stands for “current frame” ).
