By writing to sidefx, I finally understand what need to be done to export these data correctly.

There is a flag at the object level that need to be checked. Once check it will see you polymesh as a subdmesh and convert your creaseweight attribute the way katana is expecting it.

Need to test the process more in depth, but seems to be the solution.

Cheers!

Thx for this quick reply Chad!

I'll take a look at your scripts for sure.

I've also informed sidefx about the issue via support@sidefx.com email. I think it should be handle at the export process with the rop alembic, since it seems to handle it correctly when it come from Maya and use the creaseSharpness and convert it to creaseweight vertex attribute.

Let see what they'll say about it.

Cheers!

Hello, did you get any answer or find any interesting detail about it. I'm currently investigating about the subject too. Playing with houdini abc exported to katana. Trying with maya abc to see how it's handle by katana.

I would prefer that houdini rop alembic be able to handle those crease attribute by default tho.

Still in 16.5.536, does it changed in h17 ?
