Thank you for including links in the description! Super helpful

[@Leo-sd4ps]

That's a really really nice thing to help the newbie (I AM) in the Houdini learning process

[@thejourneyofwhat]

@@Leo-sd4ps have u kept learning?

[@Leo-sd4ps]

@@thejourneyofwhat oh HI 😄👋 Well I start my year in a Vfx Cinema School named VFX-WORKSHOP. It's special effects everywhere and I love it. I start with all the basics (Maya, 3DS Max, Zbrush, Nuke 🙄🙄) I only made the couple first exercices of the video but I follow currently the course of my school about SideFX. It's really a insight by the pros so I go on with that. I hope you doing well too 👋

[@NineBetween]

Crazy progress! Keep it up, you're gonna be incredible in no time at all :D

Amazing progess! Also, what are your laptop specs?

[@orientaxis]

That's really awesome progress. Keep it up Actually I was few months started learning Houdini and got super busy . Probably I will try my 5th attempt of learning Houdini 😅

[@flamepaladinn]

Thanks! This was my third time learning it and it finally stuck! So hopefully it sticks when you try it out as well, enjoy!

[@alifashf]

Amazing progress. I have recently started learning Houdini. Would you mind explaining how to make the color gradient and gradual size decrease from birth to death of particles like in your 7th work?

[@flamepaladinn]

Hey Alif! There's many ways to do the gradual size decrease but the easiest is this one. Create an attribute wrangle after your pop net then type this "@pscale = 1-@nage;" That should give you the gradual decrease. Then for the gradual color, I created a colour node > Set colour type to ramp from attribute > In the attribute section I put in "age", then that will change the colour of the particles depending on how old they are. Put in whatever colours you want! Hope that helps!

[@ShashankThapa]

Hi, what's the effect in Day 16 called?

[@jonsnow3513]

Which render engine do you use

[@shubhamshende588]

What's your system specs?

[@barbiechm08]

Hiii! Its amazing, I was learning last weeks and im so frustrating respect to "correct" way to learn it. Follow tutoriales makes u understand more every day? Cause' people says that just following is not enough and blah blah, first learn"fundamentals" and I so boring about fundamentals(nine between houdini is HIP follow now)

[@thecookingshorts]

how did you learn this?

[@user-qs9ow1zm9r]

How much your computer. I cant think of simulation time

[@nielubieherbaty]

Hi! Great progress, could you please share what is day 21 tutorial?

[@flamepaladinn]

Hi Sonia, I did that one on my own using the skills I'd learned so unfortunately there was no tutorials for it!

[@xykwv]

Can you share your PC specifications

[@ivanraimi5524]

What's your laptop specs?

[@richalexander1138]

I want to learn but I hate that it is soooo expensive!!! Any tips?

[@flamepaladinn]

They have an apprentice version which is free and has pretty much everything you'll need as a beginner, trust me bro it's worth it!

[@mady3d917]

great job king, thanks for the tutorial links

[@flamepaladinn]

Awesome! You're welcome.

[@user-gc6jt4kz7m]

What are the basic things we should include in a Houdini fx demoreel?

[@flamepaladinn]

I'm still learning myself but I've heard companies want to see you do your own projects, courses and tutorials are great but they want to see your level of understanding on the software. That being said, rbd sims, explosions, smoke, particles and flip are always a win. Especially when you layer effects!

[@SidharthGanguly]

This is impressive af! Does learning houdini require programming knowledge?

[@flamepaladinn]

Nope, as you keep learning you'll eventually figure it out!

[@victorblanchard7774]

👏👏👏👏👏

[@elcarpinterocumplido7115]

Did you use code for any of these?

[@flamepaladinn]

Don't worry, by the time you get to the ones that need code you'll probably already know what to write/what to search!

[@0xdutta]

[@KentaXX]

Is Houdini the top 1 3D software or blender?

[@flamepaladinn]

They're both useful for different things, apples and oranges you know.

[@rafaoliveira6292]

Houdini is usually used for simulations, and blender is more generalist. I use blender for in all my projects, but when I need to simulate something, Houdini is the GOAT

[@komkumarkumar4451]

Any tutorial on day 22 work anyone

[@Leo-sd4ps]

Have you like a LinkedIn or something ?

hey, just wanted to let you know that you made a typo in the title. you put Days instead of Months. cool video tho, cheers

Did u ever encounter any render problems like slow renders or something? If yes how did u resolve those issues? Also very inspiring progress : )

[@flamepaladinn]

Thank you! And yes I did, mantra is cool but kinda slow, so if I could avoid it I did. In my later renders I used arnold in Maya instead.
