Does anyone know how to create an infinite floor in Houdini? I tried creating a big white container, but it's really difficult to control the lights in order to get the white with shadows one can get in C4D for example. I'd really appreciate if someone has any clue.

I am following the steps of one the courses provided by “Pluralsight” and I have an error when it comes to compile the VEX code. I verified several times if I have a typo or the like… I asked several times in Pluralsight but they never reply (with other courses, not this one).

I wonder if there is a problem with the Syntax of this:

int seed = chi(“seed”);
int branches = 10;
float min_u = ch(“min_u”);
float max_u = ch(“max_u”);

int current_pt;
vector current_pos;
float current_grad, current_width;

for (int i=0; i < branches; i++) {
float u = fit01(rand(@primnum + i +seed +149), min_u, max_u);

prim_attribute(@OpInput1, current_pos, “P”, @primnum, u, 0.0);
prim_attribute(@OpInput1, current_grad, “grad”, @primnum, u, 0.0);
prim_attribute(@OpInput1, current_width, “width”, @primnum, u, 0.0);
current_pt = addpoint(geoself(), current_pos);
setpointattrib(geoself(), “grad”, current_pt, current_grad);
setpointattrib(geoself(), “width”, current_pt, current_width);
setpointattrib(geoself(), “level”, current_pt, i@level + 1);
}

As I wrote before, I followed the steps they provide and I even downloaded the .hip files and when I open his file there's no error like this.



These are the errors I get: "Not matching function for prim_attribute()“ and ”Using uninitialised variable: nameofthevariable".

Anyone has any idea about what I am doing wrong?
