This is one of the best Houdini tutorials I've seen. Most tutorials look super cool because they show you how to melt stuff, destroy things or make objects dissolve - but when you actually start working with clients, you hit problems these tutorials never talk about. No client is ever going to accept their logo being messed up with volume meshing and rounded corners, because they need all the mesh details, UVs and shaders to stay perfect. That's why this point deform technique is so clever - it's CLIENT-PROOF, which at my level (beginner-intermediate) is the MOST IMPORTANT thing.
Thanks for the great videos Christopher! Any updates on where Moritz and Manuel have gone? The last Time I saw Moritz on this channel was about MLOPS. Aren't they doing any vids for entagma as of right now anymore?
When I do point deform step my mesh melts tho it starts having intersection of the inner (Blue Side) of mesh with outer whitish side of mesh. What could be the reason. I'm using a wine glass to melt.
Hello, I have a problem, I have the latest version of Houdini, when I open your file, it works, but if I want to do it from scratch, the moment I go to melt objec, it creates the dopNetwork, but nothing happens... I recreate the scene from scratch without any results... Help me

awesome trick on the clip node !
Hi, great tutorial. That trick with the clip is amazing. Konstantin is next level. Looking forward to next part.
High quality tut, not a second wasted, as always.
Melting my heart too. Thänx for this great tutorial AND the scene file!
Thank You very much, Christopher!
Was working on something like this but got stuck . Thanks for sharing your technique 🎉❤
how do you enable that view at 12:44?
Click on the Visualize icon on the right side of the viewport toolbar and enable Total Burn visualization
Thanks for the great videos Christopher!

Hey! They are still alive and well! They are not gone either, just really busy at the moment, but a new Nerd rant will come! :)

What render engine was used for rendering?
Salvador Dalí would be proud!
Yessssss!
Awesome! Thank you!
