popsolver1 node causing particles to become black Aug. 7, 2016, 4:47 a.m.

I am running tutorials through digital tutors. I selected the fire extinguisher and used a source particle and it turns into a block box. When I play it back the particles are just black and not separate from each other. Why is the pop solver node causing this to happen?

Trevor, did you find a solution to this issue? I'm experiencing exactly the same issue. I'm a total Houdini beginner (second tutorial). I did notice that in ‘Wireframe’ view, the particles are there, so I'm guessing it's something to do with how they're being rendered in my viewport?

I've checked my drivers are up to date etc. Any input would be appreciated!

System specs:
GeForce GTX 980Ti

Windows 10 Pro

Cheers,
Chris
