This is exceptional. Great work on the MOPs toolkit! Missed these powerful tools

[@Dreqon1]

This looks pretty sick, im gonna try it! Cheers!

[@AyanCreations]

Thanks for the amazing content Entagma! Still struggling to get my head around Houdini and hope I'll make it!

[@Entagma]

You can do it, we're in this together!

I just wish Side Effect would buy mop or Make there own and have it as a default in Houdini!

[@igshipilov]

Thank you for your tutorial, MOPs look like a powerful tool. I'm interested: in this tutorial, MOPs make the picture by flipping just some pieces, and the rest one stays still or not completely flipped. How can I paint some pieces, but make flip all of them?

[@igshipilov]

I guess I have found the solution. We just need to change "Blend Mode" to "Multiply" in two nodes: "MOPs_Texture_Falloff" and "MOPs_Shape_Falloff". In the node "MOPs_Combine_Falloffs" we should leave the default value, i.e. "Set".

Feels like Cinema4D, but great work

Instead of using a still picture is it possible to use a EXR or Image sequence? Or a video?

[@Entagma]

Yes, e.g. for loading in an image sequence, just make sure to check 'show sequences as one entry' when loading in the image sequence. Cheers, Mo
