Hi,

Currently working on a Crowd Multiplication Sequence and Doing research on the right pipeline to Integrate Massive and Houdini.

I will be responsible for creating Interaction Dust (Running Horse,Running Soldiers….)for the crowd using Houdini.

APF Files from Massive and Skeleton from Maya will be Provided to me.

I need to generate Dust from above information inside Houdini.

1.Need to Import APF Files into Houdini.
Do we have existing plugin to import APF or do we need to write our own.

2.How to apply APF Data onto the Skeleton.
Need your guidance for above workflow.

Will the above workflow is good.

Or Do you suggest any better workflow.

cheers

Google doesn't turn up much documentation on the apf file format, but you'd probably need to write an importer in Python / VEX
