Hi, newbie question here:

I'm following the tutorial of cmivfx on procedural roads (https://cmivfx.com/store/213-houdini+procedural+road+creation) [cmivfx.com], and everething is good right until chapter 6, when the author (around 2:21) copy the parameters from one transform node ($CEX, etc.) to another transform node with Relatives References. In the tut works just fine, but in my file it doesn't. Then I open the original file of the tut, and doesnt work either!.

I'm guessign something had change from h10 to h14 that break the expression, but I'm stuck.

Please help!

Sorry for my english.

Hola!!

Postea un file!
Y asi podria ayudarte!

Saludos

There was a topic on this a while ago and even the author of that video was asking questions there. It turns out that since H12 you can no longer reference to a channel that is using a local variable in it ($CEX,$CEY, etc..). A method to solve this is to use expressions instead of local variables so that when another node references it, it runs the expression again which evaluates fine. In the case of the centroid you can use centroid(“../path”,D_X) instead of $CEX. Documentation on this expression is here: http://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini14.0/expressions/centroid [sidefx.com]
