Hi,
I have question regarding solaris/karma and crowds. I know there is new Crowd Procedural which is supposed to help with rendering and its fine on small scale, but is it even possible to render really large crowd for example stadium in solaris? I'm trying workflow for crowd procedural as it's suggested in documentation, but i cant load this many agents to lops, even few thousands seems to be overkill so I'm wandering if it's possible to do this. If not, how would you render this?

The biggest issue for this moment is viewport in solaris and very long time of loading agents. Is it possible to add usd proxy to agent made with mixamo fbx?

I don't know anything about Mixamo's FBX export, so I'll just go ahead and assume "no", which means you need to create your proxy geometry after loading it into Solaris. In addition to creating the proxy geometry, you'll need to change the original imported geometry to render purpose. But the Configure Primitive LOP can do these things. I'm not sure about the best way to _create_ the proxy geometry if you want to do that in Houdini. Probably a SOP Modify that creates the proxy geometry by processing the existing render geometry.
