@Aizatulin - Nice thankyou i think that will do the job nicley
@toonfish - Looks like the left one on your screenshot is the 'proper' way to do this. How did you acheive that?
Thanks both for your time! modelling really is not my strong point.

Hello -
What's the best way to do an extrusion with holes in Houdini?
I want to create a disk with lots of smaller holes, is there a way to set this up as an extrusion, or would I be better booleaning them out?

Hello
Not sure if this works for you?
Can just animated the max and min and bring them both to 1 when you need all the points to have a pscale of 1.

The function returns the point position for the same point number coming in via slot one of the wrangle (keep in mind they count up 0,1,2,3). You are then subtracting the current point position and the storing that value as your point normal.
point(1,'P',@ptnum)

Not 100% sure what you mean but it sounded interesting so here is your file with a point moving in real-world km/h
Houdini is kindof unitless but 1 unit is generally 1m
Not sure my maths is right, just a quick look over lunch, see if its any help

Go to the attribute transfer node and tweak the Blend Width between 0 and 1 with the view flag on the convert VDB to see how it looks.

Hello
There was post last night asking how to offset the Carve U channel so that it grows on one by one for each prim overtime.
I did the attached as how id do this but didnt get chance to finish and post. I think ive over complicated it and wondered if there is a much simpler way?
(The original poster must have figured it out as I cant find thier post now)

Hello - I was just doing exactly this today.
As you suggest you first add the file to the 'Type Properties' 'Extra Files' tab.
Then you need to go to your references on the import/file node and change from the folder or $HIP location to
So for example if it were a file node that linked to the obj model
you would change it to
https://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/assets/opdef.html [www.sidefx.com]
and if you have a whole load of these then you can do it automatically in the textport -

Hello
I'm just trying to automatically rename multiple paths for a number of embedded files in an HDA using the textport.
The original paths are:
$HIP/FINAL_FBX/xxx.fbx
So using this:
However the forward slash after the FINAL_FBX is causing a problem and it wont run.
If i use without the '/' it works fine, but then I still have the / in the new path so its not correct
Must be somthing to do with the last / but i can figure it out?

What about setting everything up in Houdini and using USD, can UE5 support USD and forgive my ignorance (I really dont know anything about LOPS and USD at the moment) but is there a potential pipeline there? can this be done using houdini engine? indie?
Sorry I know very little about this area but it's just peaked my interest!

Hello - I find myself using Houdini on a Macbook and cant for the life of me figure out how to right click in a field so i can copy the parameter and then paste relative reference elsewhere. Right click, or control click as you'd normally do on mac just isn't showing the menu you normally get on a windows box, how do you mac users do it?
