Houdini to Rhino / Grasshopper: How to exchange data??? Feb. 12, 2011, 6:26 a.m.

Houdini to Rhino / Grasshopper: How to exchange data??? Feb. 8, 2011, 2:14 p.m.

thanks for quick answering!

yes it´s possible to export via “save geometry” !
FBX ROP isn´t available in Apprentice!

the problem with “save gometry” is that it seems to save only "pure geometry!
For working Grasshopper it´s VERY usefull to have informations like numbers and position of primitives, vertices, points and particles.

there is a possibility in grasshopper to grab information from excel-spreadsheeds.
As far as I can evaluate Houdini from my beginners point of view,
Houdini gives you a great ability to acces ALL KIND of data.
If I could write specific data out into an excel spredsheed it might be a way
to solve my problem!

Houdini to Rhino / Grasshopper: How to exchange data??? Feb. 7, 2011, 2:54 p.m.

Hallo,

I´m not doing visual Effects. I´m a sculptor and using mainly Rhino together with Grasshopper. So: My purposes are lesser visualisation and
much more production of concrete sculptural objects.

Since about 5 month I´m studiously training Houdini (apprentice).
I assume that it can enrich my form finding process a lot!
Of course I know that Houdini is no CAD software like Rhino. It´s
not made for PRODUKTION.

To keep things short: I rely on some kind of communication or
data-exchange mainly from Houdini to Grasshopper.
I don´t think that it is necessary to export very complex geometries from Houdini to grasshopper. I´m shure some Particles, some Points, some Normals, some Attributes should be enough information to keep on working in grasshopper.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!BUT I HAVE REALLY NO IDEA HOW TO DO THAT!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Would be nice If somebody could help me!

Greetings: Nils
