I really appreciate this course. Most Houdini Content is focussed more on the simulation stuff and there's not that much about rendering out there. However this kinda shows me that Houdini isn't the best option for every situation. A simple render like this is like 300% easier to set up in C4D or Blender and will render in like 2-3 hours on a regular GPU. I will most likely focus more on procedural stuff in Houdini and then export and render in other applications whenever possible.

From my understanding, it doesn't change the color primaries into 8-bit sRGB. Instead, it's just modifying the 32 bit pixel values so that it show us the viewport transformation. If that's the case, then it doesn't matter if you do the color correction/fx work after the viewport transform because all the data is still 32 bit.

As a output i have a null. But in the Solariswindow i can´t choose any given group or mesh. I wish there where a simple exampletutorial to setup a scene from scratch. A few simple models wich get two or three different materials per object and setup to render in Solaris. In your example the chamäleon has his materials on it and i don´t know how they get into solaris.
@cgforge9 ай бұрын
The key to understanding all this is that Karma requires USD, and that means you need to turn everything on the obj level into USD first. Once your scene is converted to USD, many things change with how you select and work with objects. It's no longer like what you're used to in sops with groups/attributes. It's using a completely different kind of logic that's specific to USD. So, here's the two main things you need to do: 1. Make sure you convert all the objects into USD. You can do so by going to the "stage" context and using a "Scene Import" node. 2. Re-assign new shaders using Material X. Just like I did in the video, make sure you test those assignments by making a temporary color so that it appears in the viewport first. The reason why the GLTF brought in those shaders with the Chameleon was because Karma/Houdini was doing its best to interpret what was going on in SOPs when I used the Scene Import Node. In doing so, it tried its best to create material USD information and assign it to the USD objects. But, it's much better to re-assign it yourself by creating a material library node and making a MatX shader. This will ensure that you have the right info for your materials, and it provides a better way for controlling anything you need in the future. Hope that helps! - Tyler
@1234gin43219 ай бұрын
Very good tutorial so far, but I think I've hit a roadblock. After creating a Material Library node, the "Karma Material Builder" does not show up in the tab menu at all. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong somehow or if it might be a limitation on the Houdini version I'm running? (I'm using apprentice)
@cgforge9 ай бұрын
It sounds like you might be in the wrong context if you press tab and the node doesn't appear. 1. Make sure that you're using Houdini 20. 2. Revisit the part where I talk about what a context is. It's essentially an area that you browse to in your node network. 3. Hold left mouse over the "obj" text in your node tree and select "stage." This will bring you to "LOPs" which is also called "Solaris" and this context will allow you to create nodes that relate to the creation and modification of USD information. Hope that helps!

In other renderers, like Redshift for example, you need to tell what color space the image texture is (Raw for displacements, normals spec, SRGB for diffuse color jpegs) in Karma you need to do it as well, or it detects automatically the color space of the image? Thanks
@cgforge9 ай бұрын
You'll want to take a look at the first setting on the Mtlx Image node. It's a drop-down that features "Color" for any of your signals that affect color and "Vector" for any raw signals that shouldn't feature any color transformations. I'm pretty sure all the conversions are done properly with the "Color" mode, but I would need to do some testing to know for sure. 32 bit images might also get a bit more complex, so I plan on taking a look at that once I update the color management course soon 👍

@cgforge9 ай бұрын
Right now I'm still in the process of testing it out, and so far, there have been many improvements. However, for the average, individual artist, I still think Redshift is far better from the standpoint of usability and mostly due to the fact that you don't need to deal with the headache of USD. Let me give you an example... Right now if you try rendering 100,000 particles with properly curved motion blur, Karma will freeze. That's because it requires sub-stepped USD information. You need to cache out sub-stepped versions of your USD scene. There are about 3-4 nodes which try doing the same sort of thing, and it's a bit of learning curve to figure out which one you want to use and how to use it. Plus, caching out an entire usd scene like that can get heavy. Once you do cache it out, Karma just freezes, and I still can't get around it. It now also introduces lots of complications when it comes to the cooking of your network. Want to make a shader change? It's going to re-cook... all the subframes... and your whole scene freezes up. It sounds like there is a way to create curved motion blur based on quaternion information, but I have yet to find that section in the documentation. And, don't forget to re-cache out those substepped usd files because you just made a change. Also, don't forget that the preview render isn't actually going to show you the information that goes to Karma at render time. And be careful where you send a render off from because the color management might be inconsistent by default. etc. etc etc... So, it's stuff like that which feels like a couple steps backwards rather than forwards in terms of simplicity and speed. USD is supposed to be there to solve problems, but I find that it also introduces many, many additional problems along the way that make it questionably worth it. And the bottom line is that a new or existing artist doesn't want to deal with these technical headaches all the time. They want to be thinking about light, color, texture, composition, etc. rather than getting stuck in the mire of lots of little technical complications and weird systems that Pixar came up with. So, all in all, Redshift still wins out for me by quite a bit. I'm still teaching Karma because people will use it regardless of my opinions, but I'm not sold yet.
@migovas14839 ай бұрын

@peterlive33909 ай бұрын
Yes, but replace the feather with a toothpick, because the feather floats in the air. (ref: Newton)
@cgforge9 ай бұрын
No, the mass **will** affect the behavior of a simulation by defining how something falls if you are working on a project as a vfx artist. Again, using the feather analogy, mass affects the relationship between the object and, for example, wind drag. If your task as a vfx artist is to create a vellum simulation of a feather dropping in mid-air, you would need to control the behavior of that object by affecting the mass attribute. Again, the entire purpose of that conversation was to say that attributes describe something about an object, and these descriptions can influence the outcomes of a simulation. Going with your example - if your job as a vfx artist is to drop a pencil onto a cardboard box, the expected behavior would be different than dropping an anvil onto a box - thus affecting the "way it falls" and how the said object interacts within a scene. For all practical purposes, the "mass" attribute describes something in the scene and affected the end visual result required by a vfx artist. Is there anything else you would like to nit-pick in this free 3 1/2 hour course?
@peterlive33909 ай бұрын
On earth everything falls at 9.8m/s2, mass is not involved. You can test this by dropping a heavy object and a light one at the same time, they will reach the ground at the same time. I haven't tested it, but I'm sure Houdini follows the basic laws of physics. On the other hand, I really liked your training.
