He guys I'm not sure if this is a bug, or perhaps just me not doing something right. But when I bring a terrain in to Solaris it comes through fine in the Houdini GL veiwport.....but when I switch to karma it looks like a patchy volume. Do I need to convert the heightfield to polygons before bringing it over? Or is something else happening I'm not aware of. Here is some screenshots and a sample scene file. I'm using apprentice version 19.0.657. I appreciate any help you guys can give me. Thanks in advance.

The conversion doesn't need to happen pre-import. There's a toggle on SOP Import for this.

Thanks Jsmack that worked. Also thank you too Rob! I was looking through the sop import node, can't believe I missed that.
