Any word on when the docs will be available?
The 16.0 docs are now available at both http://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/ [sidefx.com] and http://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini16.0/ [sidefx.com]

Nope, still asking for Alpha/Beta permissions….

First impression - Houdini 16 works quite slowly with high quantity of polygons. Is it common? How to fix it?

Hallo, I cannot seem to find the auto rig tools.

you can add a new pane and set that to type “Autorig”, see screenshot attached.

Out of here. Being called a dick after having supported Houdini users for years is over my paygrade.
I will work for money, but NOT for "you have to provide people with free products" Indie-artists.
Good bye.

I did notice that turning off textured icon improves performance a LOT, and it was the main culprit of my performance issues.

I use Linux. I Can't create a node in the network view : (invalid literal for float () : error in mouse event).
It works with the shelf…

But I'm happy to see H16

The best thing in Houdini 16 is the radial menus! It turns Houdini into a whole new application!

How can I add HotKeys to the choices in the “Radial” menu?

For example:

How do I add the key “G” to switch to “Curve Modeling”?
How do I add the key “H” to switch to “Modeling”?
How do I add the key “I” to switch to “Poly Modeling”?

I didn't see how to do this in the Edit->Hotkeys… menu

Is this doable?

Thanks,

Marcus

The installer may have a few kinks in it. It rebooted my PC without prompting me and even though I checked uninstall 15.5 it didn't.

Agreed. Love these menus, now we just need to be able to customize them to our own workflows. I noticed the particles context is missing entirely from it unless I'm not seeing something obvious.

I noticed at the end it said 3D mous support. Does anyone have a list of compatible 3D mouse products? I was ready to pull the trigger on a 3Dconnexion SpaceMouse but want to make sure it will work with 16 properly.


I have one but I might be able to tell you after Feb 21st when they release the app.

I'm sitting here with my SpacePilot and it's not working with H16 Apprentice? Is it just a matter of having Indie or higher? Or is there a configuration profile I need to download etc?

Any pointers to getting my SP working are appreciated!

Hello, It is working out of the box for me on my rMBP + Houdini Indie. I suppose Apprentice shouldn't be any diff.

The connexion shows Houdini Indie in the list of apps ( I don't remember adding it myself when I was using 15.5 ). Did you try adding Houdini manually ?

Noap, no joy, I just went and downloaded the latest drivers, again I have a SpacePilot Pro.

Looking at their supported packages, no mention of Houdini
