Is anyone able to describe/direct me to a tutorial on how to use/set udims within the principled shader.

I keep having a look around but never seem to find an idiots guide, which is very much required.

Many thanks in advance

For those struggling like me Houdini 16.5 makes it so simple I was trying to over complicate it.

Make sure your file name of each UDIM ends with the UDIM number (e.g. Spade_EXPORT_BaseColor_1001.png)

Make a principled Shader
Assign as a texture (e.g. $JOB/tex/Spade/Spade_EXPORT_BaseColor_%(UDIM)d.png)
making sure that you have %(UDIM)d at the end instead of the file name udim number (e.g. 1001)

And all of the UDIMS fall beautifull into place
