Hi guys,

I am doing a tutorial on particle advection. The tutorial is on Houdini 15 and I am on Houdini 17.5

The way it goes is that you create particles from a sphere, then you emit a fluid from the same sphere.

In my tutorial the Pyro sim and the particle sim go into the same auto dop network and then it is fairly easy to use a pop Advect by Volumes and use the pyro node in the auto dop network to move the particles (choosing DOP data and plugging it into the DOP Object slot).

in Houdini 17.5 the pyro node goes - together with all the pyro simulation) into an independent DOP network called pyro_sim and I am struggling to bring that info into my particles DOP network and make the popAdvect read the pyro node.

I hope this is clear. If it is could any of you big boys give me a help?

Many thanks,

R

Found a pretty basic solution for this: copy and paste the stuff that is in the pyro_sim network into the particles dop and the merge them.
