Hi all

I'm using the wire pattern material to create a wireframe render. Any tips in making the width of the wire consistent across the geometry without it being affected by the size of the primitives?

Thanks in advance

Here is an example:

Thanks so much. That was really smart. This is exactly what I was looking for

Better ways of creating wireframe renders in Houdini? Is that using Wren?

Oh I forgot about that. The wireframe renderer should do the trick.
I used it before, but now I can't get it to work.
