[@arvidurs]

Do you want to see more Houdini content? Let me know below, also if you have more suggestions!

[@arvidurs]

@@d.m.9690 Yeah I can do a renderer comparison in Houdini

[@fcojavier142]

It would be interesting, a workflow about USD_Arnold, Maya to Houdini. Thank you for your work are very good.

[@armaanvlogs6304]

yes for sure!

[@h.s.narasimhan8107]

More videos on renderman for Houdini. Solaris-renderman workflow

[@ziadramman]

More Maya + Arnold stuff! Love it.

[@oleit3]

Thank you so much for this. Been working in Solaris for a while, but seeing your workflow gave sooo many insights, amazing!

[@christianvolkner2028]

Very nice! For me Solaris upgrades Houdini to one of the most powerful DCC apps for Lighting and Rendering. Altough it is something I need to get used to, since every Asset needs to be prepared and I think it still Solaris still needs a bit polishing. I would love to see more content, maybe with some PDG/Tops in it or some Environment Art :-)

[@arvidurs]

Yeah I agree it’s very fun to work in Houdini. Solaris is getting really stable now that’s fun. And yeah there will be more content, and also some pdg stuff actually.

[@drross8138]

Few years ago the same type of content was made in foundry katana...Great video as always

[@schmoborama]

did it work in usd natively? can it do modeling/animation/fx... katana is the slowest lighting tool I've ever used, while houdini is the fastest - at least until solaris where they force you to put everything into the same wire like katana

[@arseniysemin1361]

Hey @arvidurs, you mentioned Gaffer. Could you possibly make a little series on it? Recently started playing with it, and it feels like incredibly capable and powerful tool, however the are literally no resources and it seems like only TDs have no problems understanding it. Thank you

[@AvihayBar]

Yay! you're back! I've missed your content, Arvid... really made my day to see some new stuff from you! Thank you!

[@arvidurs]

Hey! Appreciate it! Been super busy this year, hopefully it won’t be as packed next year. Happy holidays

[@pipeliner8969]

Autodesk supporting you is the only thing I like about Autodesk

[@schmoborama]

they've managed to infect houdini through arnold and shotgun/grid - like a cancer 🤢

[@zohahs5276]

Nice one please do a video on Houdini and Vray in similar fashion in future thanks

[@xcombxcomb6781]

Could you share how to work with light filters in Houdini Arnold, please?

[@vilhelmlarsen9565]

Yes!!🎉 more houdini please. Will be downloading this from Patreon

[@arvidurs]

Thanks Vilhelm!

[@claudelee7669]

How to customize cryptomatte in Solaris when you use arnold HtoA ? I think it is not supported yet ! thank you.

[@arvidurs]

Customize how?

[@mitchellwoodin6686]

It would be great to see you set this up using Gaffer! I've been getting into gaffer a lot more in recent months I think it's a great free solution to node based lighting!

[@marcobersani3851]

Hi Arvid, great work! This approach can also work with sequence render queue like deadline?

[@arvidurs]

Right now there is no official usd submitter. But technically yeah it works the same way

[@Htogrom]

@@arvidurs It works with regular deadline.

[@NicolasLekai]

does anybody know how to write .ass files out of solaris? i can't find any documentation:(

[@arvidurs]

Doesn’t work. You can write .usd files though and render them with kick the same way as ass

[@aayushigandhi2915]

how do I add arnold to houdini?

[@schmoborama]

you gotta buy it - I don't think they have an educational license - google "arnold for solaris"

[@arunmaya1903]

😇😇😍😍

[@nishantpatel3920]

😇

[@Anxhelo]

More arnold content pls

[@arvidurs]

on it!
