There used to be a Ptex node, but it seems to have gone missing, perhaps it was implemented in the Texture node? If that is so then I am not sure how to use it now. I tried playing around a bit and no luck.

Anyone know how to do Ptex in houdini 14 now?

Sorry to add to this slightly old thread but just wondering does houdini 15 anything support ptex ?

Houdini 11 supposedly did,or is the feature dying or something ?

As mentioned earlier in the thread, the texture VOP supports ptex files. Just put the .ptex image in the filename.

In addition, the texture baking output driver in H15 can now also bake to ptex files directly.

I'm very new to houdini, and I was asking not about rendering,but for ptex texturing of models.

I've seen mudbox's way of doing it which is very nice but still having trouble finding the same tut for houdini, if one exists at all, -,IE: I do not have mudbox, I need to be able to start or import a model here and ptex it.

NOt my gpu as mexhmixer, by Autodesk, works perfedt all the time here, no matter how large a m esh I use, same for blender.

I“ll try increasing scale it may just be the camera has no where to go, wish I”d thought of doing that myself, I"m just so new to houdini that everything seems to be ‘new’ )
