Thanks enivob. That was my next option / thought, I just thought houdini Had a workflow for it. And I wanted to do / learn the efficient way instead of creating a workaround based off of my lack of knowledge. I really appreciate your rapid response and help. Your a superstar!!!!

Hello Guru's

Im new to Houdini (C4D convert and loving it!) I am trying to explode geometry from a Pyro shelf tool. I have the explosion looking the way I want but I don't know how to make the Now added geometry to the scene to shatter upon impact from the explosion. I Know how to shatter an object when its alone and make an RBD object break it as well But I don't know the steps to have an explosion break geometry. I tried before bothering you guys with no success and all the videos online just show them doing it and not how. Please Help.

Awesome!!!!! Looks great!!!

I have had a similar issue. so far for a few weeks I have been able to Redo this problem over and over but only if Im using a Pyro Shelf tool. I even reinstalled H15 and it doesn't do it. So I add My ground plane and sphere and add the Pyro shelf tool and up the settings everything is fine I can work in the viewport fine once I add a Light Redshift or Houdini's Stuttering while moving the camera or clicking on anything E.T.C. I have a windows machine 1070 I7 6850K 32G of DDR4 Ram a pretty Ok machine but this confuses me because the exact same steps on H15.5 works smoothly soooooo. Please help I can send video later today of the issue if I'm not clear.

UPDATE: the New daily Build fixes this but I Cant use redshift as a 3rd arty render with these builds so I can only test with Houdini lights.
