Houdini 19.5 Sneak Peek

Here is a preview of some of the new tools and functionality coming in Houdini 19.5 - next week we will go into more detail to show you what changes and improvements will be in the next version of Houdini - see you then!

[@sumiderodemierda6624]

another year without COPS revamping. Man I don't want to use Substance Designer anymore, people is yelling for a substance alternative but there is no one, it's a monopoly. COPs and terrain tools are almost the same thing. Imagine the amount of people that hates adobe and would come for it to your package.

[@MatteoCeccarini]

You are right, COPs are very useful and that context needs some love!

[@polymarvels]

Houdini 20 seems like a great number to tackle COPs. ☺️

Yay!!!! What a nice surprise! Sitting in the subway in Berlin, bored, but now I might miss my stop! :-D

[@karelkiers]

Every time a new update comes, I'm flabbergasted with all the new cool stuff they come up with! Thank you SideFX

[@utubeparpankaj]

it feels the software is from Heaven. Soothing sound track and lovely updates.

[@olexp9017]

SESI knows what sound track to choose.

[@siftycat]

As an indie I appreciate the hell out of everything that SideFX have done and are doing for the smaller guys with such a great product. However, as an indie it's always frightening how fast SideFX are able to make a lot of the stuff I write obsolete these days. :D Great work guys.

[@alejmc]

When Houdini Sneak Peek videos release it’s that time of the year where I don’t put the video in 1.5x nor 1.25x playback speeds like most things, but more like 0.75x and pause and rewind a often to try to understand what I just saw at a specific time. 8mins? More like 20mins it took me. Amazing job, this mammoth of a piece of software engineering is bonkers.

[@njfx]

Amazing stuff as always ! The new SOP Flip Workflow stuff was very much needed, thanks!

[@dff8809]

This really motivates me study Houdini more and more as an aspiring FX artist. Truely amazing….!

[@timjdesign]

am very excited about the new features and of course then new tutorials!

[@Josh_Foster]

Thanks for all your hard work SideFX team!

[@travislrogers]

Amazing amount of work for a .5 release! 👏

[@anxhelo7383]

Houdini is worth every cent u spend on it.

[@REOsama]

SideFx along with the Blender foundation have become the most beloved companies in the industry and they deserve it, these kinds of rich updates can only be expected from them.

[@clausbohm9807]

Will we be able to get the indie license to export to Blender?

[@smb3d]

Killin' it... every release! Great work team.

The developers at SideFX are doing an amazing job! Also, the music is absolutely beautiful ❤️

[@marcossouzajr1711]

the music in sneak peak of houdini 17 is awesome too!

[@karolinasereikaite8233]

Hell yeah! Excited, thank you Houdini for being so innovative all the time !

[@theblowupdollsmusic]

Those fluid simulations are very convincing. Nice work!

[@HansenEdits]

Incredible stuff from the SideFX team once again!

[@rezo856]

Finally flip fluid improvements and more awesome features. You're the best sidefx. Houdini the best program ever with best updates

[@clausbohm9807]

Yeh, love the music to their promo's too, shared many on facebook.

[@DeificSirenic]

Yes, i'll also throw in Cinema 4D alongside Houdini. The best programs one can think of.

[@maxhuk]

SideFX, you guys are just beautiful human beings, thank you! 😊

[@messingaround3087]

Incredible stuff as always thanks sidefx Good job Devs And the music is so good every time 🤟

[@petermohlmann5157]

Fantastic work.A oil sop flip fluid tutorial from start would be great!

[@MatteoCeccarini]

Amazing! And your release videos are always a great occasion to discover some great music! ;-)

[@Malaveldt]

Thank you for giving us such wonderful tools.

[@anroidanicver6783]

[@normanncheong2387]

If you kept it going till now you have all the respect that I can give

[@roberthintz4017]

Excellent changes and updates as usual.

[@syno3608]

I have no idea how these people come up with such great updates . Amazing work ...

[@alexanderdark6864]

Well, they do have one of the original engineer ladies that worked on Maya as far back as when it was owned by Alias. lol. Houdini probably has a lot of people that have essentially spent their entire career in this field.

[@juancarlosgzrz]

@@alexanderdark6864 Maya is awful

[@alexanderdark6864]

@@juancarlosgzrz It is now, yeah, but she worked on Maya way back when Maya was considered good and had ground-breaking features. By today's standards though, you are absolutely right. It lags behind even free programs like Blender.

[@workflowinmind]

I'm an houdini stan... amazing work everyone.

[@lightcone3236]

can't wait for this to be re-uploaded in high res

[@jessesolomonscott]

Every time cool updates 😍

[@wernerziemerink]

Man, I was hoping for a revamped sculpt tool in H19.5. Great update, but I will wait for the next round.

[@zetsology]

Always mind blowing

[@3dforever717]

Another amazing new version ! 👍👍 There are too many new stuff to test ! I want days with 36h to learn all these new functions... 🤯😁😉

[@stephencurah1059]

Sidefx always has impressive updates

[@InsideTheMindSpace]

Lots of interesting things in this update. Excited to take a look at some new features in aspects of Houdini that I do not typically dabble in.

[@tsiwt]

what up stormz, et us know if you move to karma and xpu after this release or if you are still gonna stick with redshift

[@InsideTheMindSpace]

@@tsiwt Don't worry I plan on taking a look at the improvements. There is a lot to unpack here.

[@CarlosDordelly]

Wow! Thanks a lot for this update :)

[@dannys_85]

The best sofware i bought yesterday Starting my indie game.

[@nguyenbui90]

Amazing as always

[@dennisbranson7816]

what's "Stashing for vellum brush operations"? Can you now record animation with vellum brush? Great work as always!

[@HangYuriYangFX]

Long waited water sim upgrade. Hopefully it will be a 3D custom fluid bound. Gonna be awesome

[@kwesikwaa9204]

another GOAT release from my favourite people

[@EsraaMohamed-cn6jm]

Nice tutorial.... Very helpful

[@contrarian8870]

The capybara at the end will now show up in my nightmares

[@Royalkg2005]

OMG! how it possible? Guys uare awesome team, even 0.5 version looks great and every time i wondered Thanks SideFX

[@manuelpineda2879]

Houdini is getting better and better

[@khalilboss2855]

SideFX never disappoints.

[@Countryballs_Animation_Studios]

always hard at work, many studios use houdini so they can easily be noted of bugs and possible updates for their softwares which makes houdini unparalell

[@susanatorresr]

Great video, the program works great

[@KaoukabiJaouad]

iam glad they bring a solid support for ocean in KARMA, it was a little buggy and cryptic in Houdini 19, a lot of people didn't understand how to make the displacement work in Karma, is it user error or a just buggy thing, as of the rest of the features, iam always mesmerized on the work the Side FX do every year , since 17.5 Houdini is doing big leaps forward, what software a category of it's own ..

[@Glowbox3D]

Those are some nice bells and whistles. Very sexy application. If you jump in and learn this software, go grab yourself a rake.

[@Samta-rh9cv]

Thanks you man for sharing this stuff.

[@VanLe-pi2sx]

THANKS FOR THIS IV BEEN SEARCHING FO SOOO LONG

[@budhihp]

hence on here a month later. thanks for making feel normal again.

Thanks bro that was really helpful

[@dex7378]

amazing, i love this software

[@gt_kenny]

EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@juancarlosgzrz]

Have they already added a proper selection node? or are going to keep working with the buggy group node?

[@evanceokeyo9731]

Oh, I goodly want to hear so!

[@jahormaksimau1597]

Great work!

[@NA-omfg]

Edge of CG. As always best

[@milansvancara]

so still no updates on that stone age UI? Cmon guys, it would take you fraction of time in comparison to those other features:D

[@SurajPandya]

Love you Houdini

[@jumayoda8822]

nice tuto bro, that solved!

[@frum2913]

You are dope bro! Damn , thank you so much, subbed

[@DeificSirenic]

That buffalo was sculpted in houdini ? I'm impressed if so. Love the hair detailing too.

[@memomind7415]

Any news about character animation without rigging or bones by pixar's character articulation through profile curves??

[@abdulsadiq8873]

Houdini is the software I just can’t seem to wrap my head around

[@MasoodOfficial]

Incredible !

[@god-rays]

This is amazing

[@sanjaysaho9366]

mind bending

[@eclairesrhapsodos5496]

Amazing! Can you implement dipole SSS? Im not sure if its better then random walk, but I like it more, my favorite is actual homogeneous medium in Maxwell, but I so badly want to switch entirely to Houdini.....

[@DistructiveElements]

*Improved texture filtering* for karma XPU. This is great news. Not even sure how XPU got to alpha without this.

[@quackcharge]

sesi never disappoint :)

[@miroslavanava4171]

Thanks mate

[@ssj3mohan]

Hello firend. The Muscles and Tissue can be used on Unity ? I mean , the Avatar with the muscles being made on the Houdini and the physics stuffs being controlled by a plugin .. like you showed on other video about Wall Destrucion . So is possible ?

[@QuiteDan]

Was that tree's wire at 2:10 made with a Labs tool?

[@edh615]

Sidefx you have to put out the beta for everyone!!!

Awesome. But what with XPU ocean volume/surface rendering?

[@polymarvels]

Should come at some point. XPU is now in beta...but still in development, so who knows what is still coming.

[@caleb_d6427]

Can you link the setuper channel, soft and track, so you don't have to color and rena 3 tis ? Btw aweso video!

Bravo! As always...

[@user-sl309jd90]

Amazing!!

[@adamyann9300]

Amazing!😄

[@syntheticperson]

Wonderful! 😃

[@marshallross3373]

Very cool. I'm wondering if there will ultimately be a convergence of asset creation tools (Houdini/Maya/Blender) and realtime game engines. Well, Blender already has a game engine built in, I think. But, it does seem like Houdini is making a big push into game development. Awesome software, btw. I could foresee Unity or Unreal attempting to purchase Houdini, for example. Not sure what it'd cost...probably a lot, LOL.

[@RyoMassaki]

Blender doesn't have a game engine built in (anymore). It was removed 3 years ago.

[@carlosparmentier4927]

awesome thanks!

[@wraithe5367]

where can I find some structured learning material for houdini?

[@qingqwang3871]

side fx是我最佩服的软件公司，没有之一

i was right right.... Flipsolver in SOP level... very cooooool

Not MPM solver? :(
