hi
I don't think anyone can troubleshoot it for you without providing any detailed infos.
mention your error message, system info , graphic driver and houdini version .etc
also run houdini license adminstrator and go to View>>Diagnostic Information.
save it and post it here.

Technical Discussion » Customizing Houdini to certian level
- altbighead

Hello,
I am pretty comfortable with houdini workflow in general but I am wondering if it is possible for casual user to customize some of the UI and behavivor to speed up the process.I am not trying to request the certain features but rather im just curious how much reading and technical knowledge to accomplish some of the features that I have in mind.
1- context sensitive function.
I am not sure If I said it right but bascially you select the poly edges(edge,face and vertice) *right click , it will only shows up the certain OPs that has to do with poly edges or add by user preferences
2- select ring
I think this one belong to Vex SOP or even HDA but I would like to select a series of rign pattern similar to edgeloop.
3- slide edge
sliding edge between two neighbor edges.
4- custom menu for favouriate OPs
ok .. that's all for now.I will love to hear some of the pointers on how to do this ..
Thanks

Ok everyone, this has quite an easy solution after all.
Basically, Houdini can't find the rgb.txt file so for anyone having this issue simply create a symbolic link in $HFS to the rgb.txt file that lies somewhere in the xorg7 dir. Here's how i actually did it
Code:
$> locate rgb.txt (which gave me the result “/usr/X11R7/share/X11/rgb.txt”)
$> ln -si /usr/X11R7/share/X11/rgb.txt $HFS/rgb.txt
This way you'll get regular colors without actually having to fiddle with resources.std file and HEX triplets.
Hope this makes some houdini friends happy. Cheers.

I can 't maximize to full screen. Ok .. not too bad but there is a small gap in the right side.
Can I configure houdini to force it fullscreen?

May be you should take a Windows 101 class before evaluating this software.Everyone with a decent computer skill knows where all the installed files are going but clearly you are not one of them and you want to put a finger on sidefx ?? Give me a break…
“would have to pay you to use the software”
Good luck with this attitude.No one here is begging you to use this software and you do realize that this is a forum where you get FREE support from software developer as well as fellow houdini artist.
Please share your Review with the rest of us. I am sure it will be a good laugh .
:wink:

Houdini Lounge » The most expensive software !!!

There is no such thing as expensive, if you can make a money out of it .
About the price, check the list again
Select Modeling | Lighting | Animation $1,299 USD*
Escape Character | Lighting $1,999 USD*
Halo Compositing $2.999 USD*
Master Visual Effects | Complete Pipeline $17,000 USD*
If you are doing typical cg stuffs, I am pretty sure you can get away with Select.If not , think of how many programmers/coders you need in other software to keep the pipeline flowing .

Hi
If you are a potential customer , don't you think it will be better to talk with SESI direactly or even post a Feature request in this forum.I mean judging by the apperance of sesi staffs in both SESI and Odforce forum , I think that SESI is taking both free and paid user's suggestion, feature request and bug report seriously.
peace :wink:
