Hey there,
Been trying to figure out how to get my ptex textures from Mudbox to Houdini 13. I did find some tutorials done with H12 but it seems as though things have changed in this version of H. Kinda newish to Houdini still and a little lost when I dive into the MantraSurface node. I'm assuming the changes need to take place in there.
Thanks a bunch

BUMP -

I would be interested too and also I'd like to ask if PTEX will be supported in the way regular textures are… just select & set, without having to construct or alter networks to get it to work.

Following the old tutorials (http://www.tutorialized.com/tutorial/Ptex-workflow-%28Mudbox–Houdini%29/70299 [tutorialized.com]) I could not find the PTEXTURE nodes they were referring to.

The docs don't make it much clearer either (at least for me) http://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini13.0/shade/ptex [sidefx.com]

Is there anywhere in the docs or online where a PTEX > H13 workflow is properly documented?
Winter is coming!

Looking for this answers still. Is Ptex no longer supported?
