KARMA RENDER
With Houdini 19.5, Karma is ready to take over render duties from Mantra.
Houdini 19.5 also includes beta access to Karma XPU.
KARMA | Licensing
Since Karma works both inside Houdini and as a Hydra delegate in other USD-based applications, SideFX is planning to bundle licenses with Houdini Core and FX for FREE and charging for extra licenses.
This new price will take effect on January 1, 2024. FREE Karma tokens will be available until then to help customers transition from Mantra.
