Houdini Main Changelogs

4.9.407

There is a new SOP, the Layer SOP, which is designed to work with multipass textures. By changing your current layer, you change which attributes color, texture, etc, map to. On layer 5, for example, color is "Cd5" and texture coordiantes are "uv5". You see in the viewport what your current layer's values are - unless you have multipass texturing turned on in the display options. Then you get the effect of drawing each layer in order from the first to the max layers specified in this SOP. Each layer is drawn on top of one another with the Blend mode by default. However, you can override the blend control with any standard OpenGL modes using the SOP.

vmantra output driver can now output null surface shaders instead of the real ones during shadow map generation stage. This behaviour is controlled by the "Null Surface" option.

4.9.405

Improved mplay in many ways:

  • The frame range of images in now what you would expect whentyping the files on the command line, rather than the wholeframe range.
  • Gamma has been added to the color controls. As well, gamma maybe adjusted when saving files.
  • Images and full sequences can be saved out from mplay.
  • The Houdini image search path is used when loading files.

4.9.404

The Brush SOP has been replaced by the Paint, Sculpt and Comb SOPs, which provide specific behaviour without the kitchen sink of options. The Sculpt SOP has the modelling operations - deform (which now works with arbitrary axes), smooth, and the combination smooth deform. The Paint SOP can also work with arbitrary attributes, and generate new attributes if desired.
