Was hoping for someone to release this kind of format for start to learn Houdini. Thank you, Entagmers!

[@baileycohen7775]

Thank you Entagma! After dropping off of Houdini rather quickly a few years ago, I'm now getting back in the groove of learning it, in no small part thanks to you guys. Thank you so much!

[@thana3270]

This is my second attempt learning Houdini and its going well so far. I am glad that I found Entagma to help carry me further

[@brencaaa]

God bless you man! As a working Blender user I've never found the motivation/time to learn Houdini, that's untill I found your channel! You make Houdini seems simple and mativated me to learn it, THANK YOU!

[@syno3608]

You are the best houdini tutorials out there

[@yanzhihan6576]

It's very helpful for a beginner to briefly understand Houdini.

[@Aviba]

Thank you for this. Excellent channel.

[@everydayhero3610]

Thank you for your work, kings. I have a hard time sticking with the consistency of learning Houdini and so I fell off a couple of times but this time I feel like I'm gonna keep pushing!

[@Entagma]

You can do it!

0:39 “In many ways Houdini is much more similar to an IDE” - Interesting. I am a software engeneeir that has done 3D out of passion since teenage years. I always stayed away from Houdini as it was proclaimed to be incredible complex. Now I have the feeling, that it might be closer to my natural software / programming environment of Visual Studio, VS Code and IntelliJ 🤔 obviously making it complex to none-coders.... thanks... you literally just flipped a switch in my head ❤️ really appreciate your high quality content; greetings from Berlin

[@Halefall]

Never has there been a better time to start learning Houdini!

[@Entagma]

Absolutely!

[@jabiraidan]

Found your channel last year (I think) with your emerald 3D sculpture and it instantly turned me on to Houdini. Unfortunately only had a Mac so not conducive to learning. Fingers crossed now eh? By the by, when I hear your voice I think of Mordin from Mass Effect.

[@tedgmedhn9424]

your tutorials are very great. I really liked it, but i would be great to make in depth tutorial about flip-fluid, pyro fx and .....

[@graphic-nations]

thanks professional demonstration

Heard about Entagma recently and have loved following through so far and have understood quite a bit than what I did in my institute. its great, easy to follow for beginners and also great to understand the workflow of Houdini. Will always recommend this to anyone who has started Houdini. But a question about the Nodes actually, how does an artist know at which point does one need to place a Dopnet or Popnet or Attribute Wrangle etc? How do I know when or why to place Dop or Popnet or Wrangle or Popsource nodes? hoping to get a better understanding on this.

[@Entagma]

Heyhey, thanks for the kind words! As for DOPnets / POPnets - they're called differently for historical reasons I assume, however under the hood both are dopnets, just pre populated with different nodes for each respective application - so you might as well just use a dopnet. Same goes for the attribwrangle - a point wrangle is nothing different than an attribwrangle set to run over points, a primitive wrangle is an attribwrangle set to run over primitives etc... Cheers, Mo

[@___shanaaa]

Any advice on where to start for someone who doesn't have a 3d background?

[@AlekMadeDis]

Come on ! Bring it on !

[@samueleb.6739]

Just one word: thanks.

[@user-cp4zp8pw5d]

pretty tone...sometimes I just can`t hear so clearly :)...very effecient courseware! thx so much!

[@pascalcreativedesign8790]

Can someone use solely Houdini for modeling, texture, rendering? or is it better just for VFX?

[@Entagma]

"Can"? - Yes, definitely. "Should?" - Well, that's a totally different thing :D Cheers, Mo

My girlfriend took one look at Mo and asked me if he was computer generated.

Moritz: the first six weeks will be difficult Me after a fail in first two hours: i am a sh*t. However I am happy to hear your support at the beginning of the video

[@Entagma]

Come to think of it, I should've said "the first six months will be frustrating"... It 's gonna be rewarding though, once you're past that threshold. Cheers, Mo

[@atetraxx]

im now a houdini GAWD.

[@sheikhg1900w]

Will any body please motivate me to learn Houdini? My point is why should I learn it, even though it is not free for commercial usage for indie.

[@gregorybennings8718]

Only you can motivate yourself. Stick to blender, noob.

[@folders_apries]

this is my first day touching houdini.. wish me luck 😂
