If you want a more detailed breakdown, let me know in the comments. I'm currently not planning on doing this as it takes quite a bit of time, but I can be convinced if there is a desire for this.

this is amazing!!
Cheers, glad you like it
looks great, do you have an idea sparkly reflections could be added with volume render method for snow?
Currently not possible with xpu and the shader directly. You can if you use the old mantra shader and render cpu, or you have to do some hacking meshing and make a thin shiny layer that you comp on top.
@@ThomasKlyhnChristensen thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I'll experiment with those methods
hello , I have this fbx import fail in UE: Multiple roots are found in the bone hierarchy. We only support single root bone. Any solution?
I love this effect!
This is so cool! =D
LMAOO
i had a good laugh when all teh sodliesrs start running for their life lmaoo
How much vram is this using? Really cool
barely any, it's a while ago now so don't remember exact numbers, but everything is made up of 2-3 tree instances, scattered a million times, so it's super effecient.
really cool! how was the rendering time with karma xpu? was it crazy high?
No blazing fast. all the snow is rendered as volumes, and karma eats volumes for breakfast. very good experience.
where did you get the ant model and animation??
I think the ant model was from sketchfab, it had a walk animation that I altered and tweaked a little but most of the work there was setting up the rig with crowds.
holy shiet!
this needs ACES
Please can you make full tutorial. , i want to know how did u create that other static snow around , make complete tutorial
Looks amazing! Tried doing a similar thing recently with branches but the round shape of the branch seemed to confuse the crowd agent spawning/animation. I guess the standard setup is meant for more flat planes. How did you approach them moving along the branch?
wow stunnig
WOW amazing tool love it
Just out of curiosity how long did each frame take to render and what hardware are you using if you don't mind me asking? I'm working on something similar in a different DCC. But I'd rather be doing it in Houdini.
I will have to look up the exact times but from memory it was around 4-5mins / frame on my 7950x - 4090 - 3090ti
@@ThomasKlyhnChristensen Thanks! No need to look it up. That estimate is great. Appreciate it.
Amazing. Where did you get that cool asset? Have you done it too?
The crowd procedure node it’s a time saver for us in Houdini 20.5
🚀
wow, now thats a colony of ants on the move :)
Sweeeeet!
new favorite!
incredible !
Beautiful :)
This was absolutely fantastic!
One of the best sanddunes
Great job!!! Could you share the setup of the slime plss??😢
Pretty awesome!
hm... I have this fbx import fail in UE: Multiple roots are found in the bone hierarchy. We only support single root bone. Any solution?
Hey i have the same issue, any solution??
i have the same issue, any solution?? T^T
Hello! do you know why i am having this error? Multiple work items list the same file as their expected output.? and also some of them are failing
Thanks for the tutorial! I'm having the same '@wedge' attribute problem as others and I am running my wedge node and selecting a work item but still nothing...don't know what I am doing wrong. If anyone has a link to that Facebook conversation about this that would be great. also side note...houdini isnt recognizing my null node reference either or my 'points' function.
holy $shit...it was because i was using backquotes instead of quotes...seems to be working fine now.
Yes, there is a lot of small pitfalls where people are so sure and assume they are doing it right, but because TOPs in involved, not everything works like you are used to. just one of those quirks, but great its working now!
It's importing animation not skeleton mesh in unreal. Help
🎉
Is there a tutorial
You should make one :)
Hello Thomas! Love it!) Im struggling to set up the shader, i know WW standard works in CPU, but i saw your video in the Houdini Karma XPU release. What was your process?
I am straight up using the karmaXPU volume shader, nothing fancy, just a lot of density values and tweaking colors and lighting. You don't get reflections the materialX volume shader does not support that, but otherwise, it's just a normal volume shader loading the density. put to something crazy high
ok great, thanks) I havent even relized there are no specular higlights in the video. I suppose with maybe some particles I can achieve that classic glitter@@ThomasKlyhnChristensen
looks cool, Dude!
Great work!, where is rendered this, unreal or Houdini mantra, karma?
This was mostly rendered with karmaXPU, I think 3 of the 31 was done with Octane
@@ThomasKlyhnChristensen thank you for your answer Thomas!, you convinced me, with the development of Karma and Solaris, I think it needs to be studied more and more!)
How are triggering the animations? Like you i plan to render mine, so i will be wanting to play them in a sequence i have setup, but i really dont want to drag and drop 100+ animation clips into my timeline :(
oh no , That's unbelievable
It's wonderful! I am also using octane for houdini and when I place about 50,000 instances, they are all visible in the viewport, but only about 10,000 are visible when rendered. Do you know the cause? I use copy to points node and check "pack and instance" and also check "packed geo instancing".
Great vdo..but after exporting its nit getting imported in unreal..getting few error like no weights etc
Is it possible to import these fbx objects into Blender?
Sure, no reason why not. Blender reads fbx characters as well as any program
Great work... Do you remember what was the size of this flip sim? And also can you tell me what are your PC specs?
What do you mean by size? Voxel size? Size on disk? It’s a quite small and not super high res sim. It’s not directly low res but by no standards high res
@@ThomasKlyhnChristensen oh thank you for your reply btw i was talking about size on disk.
Oh, well there its tiny, this is a really small scale sim in reality so I think the files were around 17mb / frame
Awesome
Hey, every time I type `@wedge`, it shows me everything, how can I fix it?thanks
I'm not sure I understand what you mean by everything? it's important to remember that with tops, you won't see anything unless you have a work item selected, if this is why you are seeing different to what you are expecting?
Fantastic workflow, love seeing use cases for TOPS - thank you!
Thank you! glad it's useful for you.
render engine?
Karma XPU
@@ThomasKlyhnChristensen really cool!
Thanks for the tutorial. Just wanted to know how to export multiple primitives to give each of them a material in Unreal, for example a soldier with a spear, shield and hood to have a seperate material in unreal. Much appreciated.
I don't have a test file at hand, but since the characters are unpacked as fbx when exported, if you have a sword or a shield or anything as a separate object in houdini, when added as an agent layer, it will come through as part of the agent like anything else. should just be an object like the agent character itself.
@@ThomasKlyhnChristensen OK, thanks , I'll give it a try
@@ThomasKlyhnChristensen I also tested this but no chance. I would greatly appreciate it if you could send me a test file. Thanks.
Really cool work 😍😊
Oh yeaa 🙂🙂
