Take functionality missing in H22? 2026年7月28日3:44
The dropdown menu that used to be in the top right hand corner of the UI that listed takes and allowed toggling of Auto-takes seems to have disappeared entirely. The only thing that remains appears to the the take manager pane. Is this a bug, or is it hidden somewhere else as part of the UI revamp?
What a dissappointment 2026年6月24日3:56
this will probably never happen... like Arnold GPU KarmaXPU is built on top of Nvidia OPTIX API (why it took 5 years and not 10-15), they'd have to rewrite the engine to get it working on anything other than Nvidia GPU's. It also means unless the OPTIX API supports it, KarmaXPU won't - e.g out of core geo on XPU.
Render farms - SideFX "not supporting public renderfarms" 2023年9月22日6:04
There's a couple of farms I use regularly for rendering from other DCC's.
I've asked them about Houdini support and they claim, despite their desire to support Houdini on their farms, SideFX don't support public renderfarms, and that gridmarkets is the only "official" render farm.
Can someone from SideFX confirm? This seems a peculiar limitation/policy, especially when there are a many farms that just resell houdini UBL rendering on AWS through a GUI.
