How to set up imported obj to be projected onto terrain July 25, 2017, 3:49 p.m.
Hi All,
I am brand new to Houdini and loving the software so far. I've been testing the terrains functionality and it's incredibly fast and flexible. I do have one question regarding obj's though.
I am sculpting a hero mountain in Zbrush to be used in conjunction with a heightfield terrain in Houdini to add erosion, terrancing etc. In the release video of terrain tools it is shown that you can project a mesh onto the heightfield terrain and then apply all the nodes as you normally would with a procedural terrain generated in Houdini. However they use a testGeo node and I can't find anything showing how to set it up with a custom imported obj. So far I can see it is mentioned that it has to be set up with a SOP network but being new to Houdini I don't have a clue how to do this.
Please run me through the steps to set it up.
Thank you very much!
