How to (non-linearly) reduce velocities for fast particles April 12, 2024, 9:09 a.m.

Hello again,

this might be a bit of a beginner question, but since I am not well-versed in the world of pops:

how can I slow down particles that are moving much faster than the overall speed of the rest of the particles in a pop sim?
I would like to implement a way to dampen the speed of the fastest particles with some sort of a ramp/falloff. Dampen, not stop or slow these particles down too much, just bring them more in line with the bulk of the simulation. How to best do this?

Thanks,

Dag

The "correct" way to set up overscan for Karma H20? April 4, 2024, 6:03 p.m.

Hello guys.
Thanks for your replies!
Yes, I think I will submit an RFE. Having options to be able to see the actual data that gets rendered to ensure your overscan is correct would be super nice.

Thanks again,

The "correct" way to set up overscan for Karma H20? April 3, 2024, 6:09 a.m.

Hello there.
I'm wondering about what it the best way to go about setting up overscan for Karma. When looking at online tutorials etc. tabs/parameters seems to have jumped around from earlier versions of Houdini to Houdini 20. I am currently on the latest production build of H.20 and did find the Data Window NDC buried under Image Output/Aspect Ratio/Data Window NDC.

However, when I enter -0.1,-0.1,1.1,1.1 for a standard 10% overscan I cannot see this reflected in neither the regular viewer nor in MPlay... This seems very wrong to me. I did get an overscan rendered when sending things to disk though. But if feels like I am missing something here. Why do I not see overscan reflected in the viewer/MPlay? And how can I get this to work properly?

Help is much appreciated!

Thanks,
Dag
