How to render multiple products (deep) with husk/karma 2026年8月24日7:11

Karma looks for the product type karma:deep, what product type are use using?
You should be able to set this up pretty easily using the "Deep Output" tab on the Karma LOP;.

USD Geometry DoubleSided support in Karma 2026年7月3日8:21

So, you're telling Karma to cull the backfaces, but also to shade double sided?
I think in this case, Karma decides to the cull backfaces option takes priority.

Internally, there's only one option in Karma that controls this behaviour. The USD attribute is used to set the value of the "Cull Backface" property in Karma - but it looks like if the Karma property also exists, it overrides the USD behaviour. This might actually change based on threading or updates to the USD/Karma libraries. When you're giving conflicting instructions, you get undefined behaviour.
