Hi! I’m using Houdini 20 Indie (Steam). When I import alembic scene and trying to dive into the root alembic import node Houdini completely freezes until I terminate the process. I tried with "production build" and "previous production build". When I try to do it with Houdini 19.5 everything works normally. I’ve changed the hardware and swithced from Windows 10 to Win 11, but the problem remains. Also tested it with laptop - same.

Had anyone have this issue? Thank you!

can you post an example alembic file? If it's possible. could be a corrupt abc.
when you say "dive in" do you mean looking at the geometry or in the node graph. I ask because the Alembic Import node can't be dived into.
and do you add the unpack and convert nodes after the AbcImport.

I've issues with borked Alembics coming from Marvelous before. extra points floating, etc. Where did the ABC originate?
