Edit USD asset and keep materials Nov. 14, 2023, 7:08 p.m.

Hello,

I downloaded a USD asset with some materials/textures attached already.

I want to import it in SOP to do some modifications to the geo and a little animation, I use "USD Import" sop.

Then I want to go in LOP and import this sop graph using a "SOP import".
Or Maybe later I will cache SOP's modifications back into a usd file.

Problem is that I loose the materials...

If I use a "reference" LOP, it's working as expected.

Help please

Python script to refresh attribute July 1, 2021, 11:45 p.m.

Hello,

I'm trying to get the creation time of frames and put that in an attribute to later put this attribute in an overlay.

The problem is that when PDG generates the work items the attribute is not created yet, it's only created when the python script cook.
So the overlay appears empty.

I tried whith Dynamic work item generation but it breaks the rest of the depedency chain for any reason.

How can I force it to refresh the work item attributes after the python script cooked?

Thanks you

Houdini 18.5.499 Deadline Sandbox Error July 1, 2021, 11:29 p.m.

Hey guys, I had the same problem , and after a few hours of research I found the solution:

Your deadline scheduler needs to be like that:





AND

You need to copy the PDGDeadline plugin folder from *HoudiniInstall*/houdini/pdg/plugins/PDGDeadline to *\DeadlineRepository10\plugins

Works like a charm now

Let me know if it works for you.
