OCIO version error and difficulties to update it Dec. 13, 2024, 9:49 a.m.

You can change OCIO config with Python, like the Python Source Editor. If the UI is not working. Just remember that the code you have in Python Source Editor, will run every time Houdini open the scene file that has some code in the Python Source Editor. Best to remove the code after you don't need to run it anymore.

import os
import hou

os.environ["OCIO"] = "PATH/TO/YOUR/config.ocio"

hou.Color.reloadOCIO()

You don't need to compile anything. You just need a config that is not newer than the version Houdini ships with.

If you are using config that ships with the same Houdini version you are using you should be fine. But if you are loading the config that ships with 20.5 in an older version of Houdini problems will arise.

You can download official OCIO configs from here [github.com] btw.

Karma Background Plate object doesn't give bounce light Dec. 4, 2024, 7:31 p.m.

Only way I know how to improve it, is to jump into the shader inside the Background Plate Node and tweak.
