Pauuullll this is so useful, this will help me clear out so much spaghetti Thank you for teaching me to be a better Houdini chef 👌

[@joze5303]

really good! easier than HDA for simple changes. thanks for the tip

[@desocrate]

Really impressive stuff, love learning new ways to do things in Houdini, thanks so much !!

[@sskidmore13]

Super useful, thanks Paul

[@Kumodot]

invoke is like a function (but in nodes). Like the Good Old "goSub". Another amazing tutorial. I wasnt aware of this workflow !

[@solo-moon]

Thank you

[@waffleboytom]

Just used this today, thanks Paul, you're the man !

[@pragmaticvfx]

Nice one Paul, looking forward to this next level content! :P

[@FabianStrube]

Great tip! Thanks alot!

[@qyoinqyuri]

Started using `Reference Copy` for template mesh when re-topologizing, `Invoke` functionality should come in handy too. Thank you!

[@dannys_85]

Thanks Paul really good video

[@serialvision]

great tutorial! thanks a lot

[@resilientpicture]

This is good stuff. Thank you.

[@sergeisukhorukov5769]

Great tip! Thanks!

Invoke SOP remained as mystery to me for so long. Thanks for this tutorial. I don't get the whole "No internal reference path" thing. Sometimes I have a setup with 20-30 references to a single attribute/parameter like seed and I have to create spare parameter in every node. Maybe I'm just too dumb haha. I like this workflow for experimental setups during RnD phase.

[@JacKsCave]

anybody knows if there is a invoke node or workaround to LOPS ?

[@FaddyVFX]

Good job. Great video, i like it 😊

[@Tritoon710]

Great, thank you. Can you please show how to work with Invoke Compiled Graph which was introduced with Houdini 19. Thanks

[@simonvandenbroek6384]

Hey, I have a question. as you said that python sop is not compile-able how does this work with python scripts in channels or houdini-module of an hda for instance? I also wonder if the invoke sop itself can also be part of a compiled loop.

[@OnkAnCa64]

Thx for this tool, just a quick question I try to use Labs Straighten geometry node inside the compile block but no way, it's not working when I invoke. Thanks in advance for your help.

[@robbiero368]

Presumably it contains sub nodes that can't compile

[@jimjimjim5995]

thank you, the nodes in compile block will be run in parallel? in other words does compile block need a for each loop to work in parallel?

[@paulambrosiussen]

Many nodes in Houdini already are multithreaded. But if you want to loop over things and process that in parallel, you will need to put a loop inside your compile block.

[@Bolaway]

Awesome!!!!!

[@isaak4777]

We need something wich also works with non-compilable nodes. Sure Hda.. but it's just not the quick and easy way.

[@antoniopepe]

Pooweeer :) thanks

[@sams_3d_stuff]

Thanksssss

[@StephaneSOUBIRAN]

Merci

[@manikyanegi3892]

My Houdini Don't have that Test Geometry Paul :(

[@paulambrosiussen]

Do you have Labs installed?

[@manikyanegi3892]

@@paulambrosiussen Ah Thanks I just Realised It was Not a Simple Test Geometry.

[@JDudeChannel]

I dont even know the node invoke is exist. Are you the god of Houdini ?

[@forton615]

He's one of the creators, so you're not too far off. 🙂

[@VuPhamRainstorm]

thank you
