Hi guys and girls!
I have been playing around with animated organic geometry creation and I am quite happy with a result, the only problem is that the resulting bgeo file is huge. 1.3 gig per frame. Which in itself would not be a problem but in a 150 frames animations it is not insignificant.

Is there anyway to reduce this files?
bgeo.gz still gives me 600 mb.

Bests,
Nico.

Actually I found something in the convert vdb that helped a lot:
adaptivity! this reduced dramatically the numbers of polygons without any loss in quality so far… the files are still big 50 meg in bgeo.gz per file but manageable.

Yeah,but depending on where you are going with Houdini, get used to crazy amounts of Data on your Harddrives… It gets heavy sometimes…
