Houdini COPs SlowTip - SciFi Patterns in COPs

[@Rombododecaedron]

Wow! I am so happy that I found you. Unfortunately, there is not much information on COPs, and it's not easy to properly explore its capabilities.

[@3D_GO]

Glad you like the content. You 100% agree not much out there on COPs at all. Its been a bit overlooked but you can do lots of interesting things with it once you get the hang of it.

[@Rombododecaedron]

@@3D_GO Indeed! Of course, COPs is less comfortable than other specialized texturing apps, but, IMHO, its ability to work directly both with shading and geometry makes it quite unique and potentially very powerful.

@@Rombododecaedron yeah it's got lots of potential. I've been surprised how versatile it is. It's pretty easy to get some awesome shape that would be difficult to generate in Sops.

Awesome, great series

[@3D_GO]

Thanks mate, appreciate it. I think there is lots of potential with COPs. The rise in AI generated imagery will hopefully encourage sidefx to invest in updating this context

@@3D_GO would be cool if you did look into using attributes from the geo to drive the shader, have been playing with that a bit
