I see what you did there...

[@chr1st0pher]

buckle upppp !

[@xanzuls]

Congratulations to the Houdini devs for achieving to new heights again.

[@fabricio_chamon]

Amazing release guys, good job! The great thing about Copernicus is that now it is possible to create 100% procedural assets in Houdini, including textures. That was the final piece we needed for such level of proceduralism.

[@PeterJansen]

As a comper who dabbles in Houdini... I'm in heaven. So many opportunities to have a proper blend of the two worlds.

[@JacKsCave]

Hhahaha like me 9 years as nuke comp , and now with houdini . Side fx is fucking love

[@dweaveraudio]

HOLY MOLY. These dynamics are just gorgeous.

[@audiodrocher]

Houdini is a sofware engineering as an artform. Just beautiful. Thank you SideFX 😊

[@YanivGorali]

You killed substance! ❤

[@billjeason6635]

Not yet🤨

[@Jieisho]

There's instaMAT for that. Much more powerful and has many more things to offer.

[@fastlearner292]

Wow...... finally finished watching this whole video. So much to take in, so many new stuff.....wow

[@OlafFinkbeiner]

I can't believe it... Sooo cool so many new things to learn and use

[@carlosrivadulla8903]

What a great speaker Cristin Barghiel is! I love listening to him.

[@Geometrynode]

This is literally the coolest thing and most exciting thing. I am speechless

[@braddlackeyy]

Good lord this is all so incredible.

Man, that was actually exhausting, so thrilled, can't wait to get my hands on H20.5!!!

[@gcharb2d]

My third time watching the video, dang, H20.5 has seen more development in 8 months than Blender in the last 5 years, you guys are incredible, real legends!

[@rahulgirish4650]

Have it open now, can we just take a moment to appreciate how incredible useful the Node Info panel has become.

[@travislrogers]

Unbelievable update! SideFX for president!!

[@PalmwineStudio]

fingers crossed for mid year christmas 🎉

[@demianpelos]

every update of houdini comes WITH so so much!! stuff is incredible

[@rano12321]

This is so amazing man. Great jobs, Houdini devs.

[@DerekElliott]

insane stuff nice work

[@lucasgarcezxyz]

Houdini tutorials soon? 👀

[@kwesikwaa]

the character animation tools are insane. realtime wrinkles too? APEX is finally here to kill. i love that it is physics based as well. MPM + vellum + rbd seem like a very psychopathic combination, moving forward. and COPS upgrade + OFX in COPS? man we are blessed

[@MrSunamo]

So many great features are coming, I'm glad to have made the decision to start learning Houdini about half a year ago. Hopefully Copernicus will also work with other render engines like Redshift and Octane, etc.

[@alainhanni4874]

Honestly, what an amazing software this is!!! SideFX puts the bar soooo high every time! Thank you guys! Can't wait to use it!!!

[@PalmwineStudio]

the animation context from H20 and these new updates, make Houdini the reasonable place to do all character animation. 🎉 very intuitive. job well done. 🙇🏾‍♂️

[@lselectric7]

I remember in the early 2000s doing an entire vfx shot from start to finish in Houdini using cops. The studio I was at used cops as the main comp package. Always wondered why SideFX didn’t continue to dev cops earlier and let the foundry take over. So much easier to work in one software. Glad they’re back on track.

[@Kumodot]

Reinventing the +0.5 Industry Standards and expectations. I Feel sorry for the other devs. 🤣

[@iam_niam]

Especially Maya, or Max... Many years no massive upgrades.

[@SeregaZinin]

@@iam_niam , Bifrost is updated every month.

[@iam_niam]

@@gcharb2d blender is free and open source. And it is not financed like a Houdini. Incorrect comparison. But if change Blender to Maya or Max it is will be a true and correct comparison.

[@studionotwar]

So so hyped for almost everything in this release. it's really impressive.

[@SimpleandProcedural]

This is amazing! I don't think I've ever been this excited about a release!

[@techsuvara]

Mind blowing! This is high end SFX at your fingertips!

[@prymexxxx]

Insane stuff. Absolute Magic

[@cgforge]

Congrats SideFX! This 0.5 is epic in scale, and addressed a lot of pain points that take things up to the next level 😎👍

[@scarabrae]

Cheers guys! Wonderful stuff!

[@Alexsp76]

An absolute gobsmack.. well done team!

[@SaladFX]

so you're telling me that I don't need to fix topology of a model to avoid all sorts of fracture problems? That is amazing.

[@Mrsa66789]

Thank you so much for making me excited about CGI again!

[@TimvanHelsdingen]

Legends

[@OscarChabrand]

Really interested to see the viewport performance of those tools. Especially the viewport texture painting and sculpting tools. So many possibilities and so many questions!

[@mnymanVFX]

Absolutely insane update! Proper destructive modeling tools would be the only thing remaining for me to remove Maya completely from my workflow.

[@lega_xyz]

Great presentation! The work that was accomplished since version 20 release is incredible! Thank you SideFX!

[@SvetlinNikolovPhx]

The MPM examples look really pleasant

[@neilrognvaldrscholes]

Wow.. Really great stuff, cant wait to learn all this!!! You guys are amzing!

Copernicus comes just at the right time to kick Adobe, with its ToS, to the lunchbox!

[@xl000]

Adobe isn't sleeping either. I don't know if they have keynotes,

Awsome release. Thanks for all this amazing stuff .

[@phinnaeusoconnor]

Amazing! Could of done with some of these tools on our last couple projects! Cant wait for release...

[@briellescott9656]

How did I not get a notification for this? Was totally going to put it on while at work.

[@JackHiddeG]

Let’s goooooo🎉🎉

[@N1KYNIKY]

THIS. IS. TOP.

[@nicolaastanghe475]

Btw since everyone here is probably listening. I was wondering if you could somehow automatically adjust your Texel density ov UV`s to where details get smaller when you are sculpting behind the scenes to reduce memory footprint when sculpting. And then every so much time store some of the height field as deformed geometry on the mesh to save memory. But what do I know, you’re probably already doing awesome things.

[@carlherner9458]

just mindblowing stuff

[@rigmarole]

Love SideFX! Is there a release that won't blow us away?

[@meroshango9603]

For the rigging, I’m happy to see It Is Looking more like Maya, i think you should also change the look of those lines bones
