A couple of questions for the Bake to Actor function in the HDA.

Our current asset is using a copy to points method of creating assets along a spline. We have it set to ‘Pack Geometry before Merging’ to create Instances of the asset. For this example I use a fence.

The Geometry Asset Input has the original asset that we are going to Instance. In the Houdini Output section ‘HoudiniOutput_0 Instancer->Mesh Instancer’ is the asset that is going to get Instanced, which has a different name.

Are we able to bake this to a new Actor in the level and not an additional asset. Is this possible?

Will we have the option in the future to bake this to a Spline Mesh Component? By creating a new Actor in the level and not an additional asset? We are trying to optimize our assets as best as possible. Thanks.

Just read in another post that it is updated in V2 just not in the Alpha. https://www.sidefx.com/forum/topic/75103/ [www.sidefx.com]
