Using HDA's with dopnet fluid sim in UE July 2, 2023, 1:20 p.m.
Hi folks -
I am a new user, and I made a cake decoration HDA to use in UE (img 1: dripsfull.png)
It looks great in Houdini and I'm happy with the direction.
When I bring it into Unreal (5.2) everything works aside from my chocolate drips.
I have them set up in a dopnet (img 2: dop.png)
the cook log is a nightmare (img 3: screenshot_2023-07.png) and I don't have the knowledge to understand it quite yet.
I assume I am doing something fundamentally wrong and would love to be pointed in the right direction. I had it working at one point where it would bring in the remeshed particles, but it looked like they were locked at frame one, and then I'm unsure of what I changed and they disappeared the next time I ran it.
It's also possible that this is just the totally incorrect workflow for this type of thing, and I'd love to hear if that's the case so that I could head in the right direction.
Thanks in advance!
