Houdini is crashing.
Fatal error: Segmentation fault

Happens only when using the Ramp Parameter inside the Attribute VOP.
And when it doesn't crash for a couple of attempts it doesn't Auto-Update the viewport.
I need to rename the Parameter for it to update. And after a few tries, it crashes.

I've already re-installed the Video and Audio drivers and other drivers.
Re-installed Houdini, haven't re-installed RedShift in case that was the problem.
Also, increased the TdrDelay to 10 minutes.


Nothing has worked. So confused. I need to learn Cross Product to move on.
Fundamentals are the building blocks.
I can and won't move forward.
I need this.

No crashes here. What are you doing when it crashes? I tried interacting with the ramp parameter in test_2 and renaming it but there's no crash. The ramp isn't connected in a meaningful way though, it could be replaced with a constant node set to '1'.

When you say the viewport doesn't update, is that because you're editing the default value inside the vopnet? The default value doesn't change the current value, only the default. Go to the top level and reset the ramp to default to get the new default ramp.

Redshift is a red flag though, get rid of it.

@Jsmack Thank you! Didn't know that! I'll try that right now!
Yeah, forgot to add a Multiply node with the cross and the ramp!
I'll keep you posted! Thank you so much!

@jsmack OMG! HAHAHAAH! Thank you! You solved all my problems!
I guess I should keep Redshift off Houdini then?
I wanted to try and use Redshift inside of Houdini to maybe get some extra toys out of render engines!
Let me know if it's just a bomb that will blow up in my face someday!



TLDR: Only move VOP Ramps outside in SOP Level. Don't use them inside VOPS.

I don't personally use it, I'm just going off the number of posts I see by users having trouble. I know a lot of users like it. My advice was more that when ever there's instability, the first thing to try is running without any 3rd party tools.

It may still be desirable to edit the default ramp, such as when making an asset to reuse.
