Hello. I'm having trouble setting up the Aces color space in Houdini 20. I've followed some tutorials but I'm still confused about a few things. I'm rendering with Mantra and I'm not sure if I've set up the render view color correction correctly. Can anyone help me with this? I've attached a screenshot of my setup. Also, I'm not sure when I need to convert textures to Aces. I've been using an ocio transform node but I'm not sure if I'm setting the parameters correctly.

Why are you rendering with Mantra? Use Karma unless you really need VEX shaders.

Why are you rendering with Mantra? Use Karma unless you really need VEX shaders.

I'm using Mantra for procedural shading without UVs, primarily because of the DirtMask node. I'm considering Mask by Features but need help implementing it in Karma.

Would you like me to provide more options, or perhaps explain any specific technical terms in more detail?
