Export to Alembic with 'Maya' like locators Jan. 15, 2020, 11:32 p.m.

I know this topic is old, but it is a good one. I need to generate locators for nuke. I can export transform data that will come into maya as an empty group, but nuke can't see them. Needs to be an alembic with out extra manual steps in nuke (off the shelf nuke geoRead node).

Surely there has been some development on this as it would be useful to pass null transform information to maya or nuke or other packages.

Thanks in advance.

Houdini crowds, redshift fisheye Jan. 11, 2018, 1:34 p.m.

I am currently rendering crowds in houdini/mantra and the rest of the scene in redshift from out of maya with 180* fisheye lens. I can get the results close using the ASAD lens for mantra renders, but it is not close enough. Looking for suggestions on a better solution.

Looked at unpacking crowd and rendering it in redshift in houdini, too many agents, too time intensive to unpack, renders too slow.

Suggestions and ideas?

Tamte,

That is a great solution. Testing it out right now.

Thanks so much.
