I managed to solve it for redshift renderer by calling up the "basecolor_texture" attribute as a local string parameter on the Material node then referencing that inside on the RStexture node plugged into the base color...

I had to transfer the 'material_override' attribute back onto the geo after the material node as it overwites that attribute.

Also there is som issue with the UVs but they seem to get corrected if I merge it with a grid with UVs, I dont really understand whats going on. I tried promoting UVs from point to vertex but it didnt help.

I would love to get this working in Karma. I found this tutorial [www.youtube.com] which may be a part of the answer but it does not solve the matching per prim...

If anyone has any better ideas or want more detail into my hacky solution lmk

Here is a screenshot diving inside the EarthMesh HDA.

He is using a loop and a Labs Quick material to generate the attributes

Hello,

I have been playing with Daniel Gallardo's Earth Mesh HDA: https://github.com/xjorma/EarthMeshHoudini [github.com]

It generates a mesh with three prim attributes: "material_name", "material_override", and "shop_materialpath". The material texture renders in the viewport but I do not understand the process of translating this to Karma or other renderer.

There are over 2000 separate materials

Is there a tutorial or relevant documentation that explains this?

See attached screenshots

Any advice is much appreciated.

Thank you
