The ability to build HDAs like this to speed up specific workflows is what makes Houdini ultimately faster than shrink-wrap software like Substance in studio pipelines, even if it is technically slower/clunkier when looking at specific steps. The automation just builds and builds while in other tools, you're stuck with click click click manual, errror-prone labor.
4:23 blending normals this way will not output properly normalized vectors. I know this is subtle and some materials and/or renderers fix that automatically when rendering, but depending how the texture will be used, I think it's always good practice to normalize the vectors correctly. Great video though.

Definitely something for a future episode!

i would like to see how to manage assets with more than one uv . With udims with this new copernicus .
can U pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
provide new workflow of UV mapping with H20.5
I think it's still the same? Has SideFX released some new uv tools I am unaware of?
