Maybe it is possible to separate that big bgeo file into several chunks?
Using Micropolygon ?
Maybe Delayed Load will help?

Well it works here. Just apply that shader as material. But it is buggy though.
But what are advantages of this compared to Point instancing and/or Fast point instancing? This shader is used in Fast point instancing.

Workaround was to create new cameras. I still have some problems with some geometry lines are behaving strange, drawn wrong, but when u export in EPS you can easily fix that in Illustrator, for example.
I am answering to bot, I guess ,but here it is in case someone have similar problem.

Thanks for help.
I manage to do it with copy, distance() and attributes
Here is short video of where I am now. It requires more tuning.

Thanks for response guys!
What I need to do is similar to books on shelf. I need to generate several of them, random sizes and than to place them on by one. I might go with Python SOP just need to learn more about Python in Houdini. This is something I created in Maya with Python, for practice I am transferring scripts to Houdini.

I am copying some objects, and to be able to translate current copy correctly I need to get size of bbox of previous copy. I can not for God sake figure out how to do that, any suggestions?

Does Wren works with Orthographic camera?
Whenever I try to render, Wren starts, but nothing shows. In task manager Wren is working and it just starts eating RAM.

Tnx for reply.
I think that is somehow related to geometry, even I disable lights I see artifacts, not so strong though. Also I was using raytraced shadows.
One more problem I have with this scene. I can not open it if I have cooking set to auto, upon starting I got memory fault and Houdini crash. Scene however takes 2GB of 12GB I have. If I set cooking to manual, open scene and than set to auto it works ???
As things are now, I will need to choose another, lighter scene to practice more of Houdini ….

I have strange artifacts on render of specific frames, and I can not track what is problem. It is not sampling problem, nor double polygons …
And this affects several frames through out entire animation.
Entire animation can be seen here.
http://vimeo.com/36339204 [vimeo.com]
PBR used.
Any suggestions?

After little more experimenting I figure out that whenever I use instancepoint() in shader Mantra renders with one core only. Is this bug? Can anyone confirm this?

When using instancepoint() to vary color of instanced points, render time is at least 5x slower.
Is that expected behavior?

Thanks a lot for help, I will check that!.
I manage to fix issue with textures, I just had to use $MAPU and $MAPV variables instead default ones for tex parameters. And it works great.

Unfortunately that is bit over my present Houdini knowledge.
I manage to get decent results with Point SOP and tex expression, but texture that controls scatter and diffuse one do not match.
