Hi

I have this exact same problem.

Houdini 21.0.440 on Linux (Ubuntu or Pop!)

Fresh install of Houdini 21.0.440 (not the launcher)
Fresh install of Ubuntu 24.04

I also tried installing Pop OS 24.04 - Same problem.

Qt Error: This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: minimal, eglfs, vkkhrdisplay, xcb, linuxfb, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc.

I tried all the apt-get suggestions on this thread, but the error persists.

Is there something else I can do to get Houdini to run on Linux?
That would be great.

Thank you!

Here is the left foot



LeftFoot_Planted channed is shown in Orange and LeftToeBase_Planted is the Yellow channel.

As far as I was aware, if the planted channel has a value of 0, then the foot or toe is not planted and can move off the ground.
Is that correct or an over-simplification?
Why does the Left Foot become ‘not-planted’ for a couple of frames and then become planted again?
That does not make sense to me.

Any help would be great, thank you!

Hi,

I have a crowd agent using a mocap clip. I am setting up foot locking and find one clip is not behaving as expected.

Even though the RightFoot_Planted channel is at 0, the Right Foot is still planted and I cannot explain why.

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot



(The RightFoot_Planted channel is the dark green line, the RightToeBase_Planted is the light green line)
