COPS is the one area of Houdini I really wish would see a significant improvement sooner rather than later.

I pretty much use it every other day, and since the introduction of TOPS it has become even more indispensable for our workflows. Sure, I use to export things to AE, Nuke or Substance for all kinds of manipulations, but since I switch to working on games the need for custom image work for data storage as mentioned above by @GoetzingerC and @mestela has been one of the main things I use it for. And not having to jump to an external editor is very productive.

It's just a shame it's so damn slow. It's the perfect complement for TOPS and reduces the need for custom studio scripts that were poorly written years ago for simple things like: render, comp, export.

One can dream and I hope there's some love for COPS sometime soon <3
