Hi there,

I don't know why but I cant find the cross product node in VOP context.
I can find the other nodes no problem.
I repair the houdini install but still the same.

Any ideas ?

Houdini 20.5.410
Win 10

Thanks for your help.

Hi,
many reasons can be for this behaviour but can you create a node using Python?
hou.node("/obj").createNode("geo").createNode("attribvop").createNode("cross")

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion.
I'm not able to create the node with python either.

Here is the result:


hou.node("/obj").createNode("geo").createNode("attribvop").createNode("cross")

I think you have changed the definition of this node. The easiest solution would be to backup the houdini20.5 folder in your home user directory and start Houdini again.
