Dear Houdini Users,

first of all sorry for my english.

I use the non-commercial edition of Houdini and as I see most of the expressions not work. I tried several things like changing the expression languages, the objects. The weirdest thing that in examples downloaded from the internet the expression works and when I'd like to use it and cases when I make a circle don't. I do not understand. It's my mistake?

Thanks for the answers.

Your node expression language is set to Python and $F isn't a valid Python call. If you delete your channels, set the language to Hscript and put it in again it will work.

Thanks! I was losing my mind over this xD

For those looking where to change it globally
edit / preferences / scripting
Expression language menu

For individual nodes (you probably need to reenter expression after switching to another language)
