Hello world! I was wondering if anyone has tried setting up a crowd simulation using animation that is on 2s? In other words, every other frame would be a duplicate or ‘hold frame’.

I am testing using this kind of stylized animation on a crowd, but Houdini seems to try and blend animation together when I turn on ‘Randomize Clip Time’. I also see incorrect results when applying transitions and popSeek nodes.

This may be off the beaten path but I wonder if there is a way to get better results, maybe by editing through Chop networks?

Any input is appreciated!
