Hi,

I have a DOPNET setup and am using a Vellum solver.
In the DOPNET I create an attribute I'd like to use outside the DOPNET which will in turn affect the points feeding the DOPNET.

I've tried all kinds of things, but can't seem to figure it out.

What I'm really trying to do is find the MAXIMUM attribute value and use that to adjust my point scatter which feeds the DOPNET.

Any ideas on how to accomplish this?

Thanks,

Jim

Can you do what you need using SopSolver in the dop - https://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/nodes/dop/sopsolver.html [www.sidefx.com]

I've attached a .hip file which explains what I am attempting to do. I have 6 different 'scatter' areas feeding different advection volumes for particle movement, so I don't really want to keyframe these as it will be a mess trying to art direct it when I have a value from 0-1 already from the position in the volume.

Thanks!

Jim
