Houdini Main Changelogs

6.0.148

The Primitive SOP with a lookat of "none" used to point to an object if there was an object called "none". The dynamic path upgrade code will change the "none" to "", thus causing it to no longer look at any object. This was likely the desired behaviour, however.

6.0.147

The Group SOP and Delete SOP now behave slightly differently when selecting by normal with a reference normal and spread angle. They now use a small tolerance, so normals which are extremely close to the critical angle, but not quite, are still selected. This was required as floating point errors would often result in a random selection of normals when spread angles of 0, 90, or 180 were chosen with axis aligned geometry. There is no work around for this.

Fixed bug where sourcing in scripts that created operators that had local variables in their default parameters would generate spurious errors (but still succeeding).

6.0.146

The help for the -m option of the opscript command has now been fixed. The actual syntax for the -m option is "-m in_wire out_wire" where in_wire is the input wire node path and out_wire is the output wire node path.

Also documented the -o option of the opscript command.

Fixed bug where if you specified "file`opdigits(".")`.$F4.rla" in the output picture parameter of an output driver, then changing its name would change the parameter to "file`opdigits(".")`..rla". Specifically, it used try expand any variable references with the current environment.
