Hey everyone, Houdini newbie over here.

I am trying to export a vertex animation of an RBD simulation I created in Houdini.
I am using VAT to export, but I get this warning when I connect to my SOPPath:


Warning
Rigid-Body Dynamics (Rigid) mode expects the point attributes "pivot" and "orient" on packed points but at least one of them is not found on the input geometry.

I looked everywhere but can't find any references to pivot or orient. Are these attributes meant to be included in my fbx? If so, all I see is the following:


4 Point Attrs
fbx_rotation 3flt , fbx_scale 3flt , fbx_translation 3flt , P 3flt (Pos)

Exporting doesn't seem to work, I end up with an fbx file with no mesh.

Any help from you Houdini gurus would be most appreciated!

Make sure you add the required attributes on the rbdbulletsolver.

Eg on the Advanced tab, add P pivot orient and check the Transfer to Geometry box
