Particle instancer to rbd object || HOUDINI TUTORIAL

in this video we will talk about how to convert particles to rbd object.

[@Masarra2017]

One of the most beautiful channels of Houdini education ... But at every end of the lesson you must give us an overview of the Render method

[@madjidbouharis729]

Thank you so much mate, that assemble node gave me a headache this whole evening thanks so much, you saved my day

[@ABlackbirdCalledSue]

very nice! Clear & concise and just what I was looking for!

[@MRFXoriginal]

enjoy

[@alphaillusion4541]

Believe it or not, this has just saved my project. Thank you champ! 👍👍👍

[@MRFXoriginal]

Enjoy and always welcome 🥰

[@3dBlenderLab]

Omgggg thank you very much! Much love and appreciation from the PH!!

[@MRFXoriginal]

welcome dude

Fantastic Tut. Bro....keep it up

[@travislrogers]

Great info and well presented! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!!

[@MRFXoriginal]

Welcome and thanx

[@andymore4587]

Very useful Tutorial ! Thank you so much

[@rohitsrivastava9471]

Great. Will try in Houdini 18.5

[@oshingupta8697]

Bhut bdia sir ji... Aap hi ek hope ho😀

Hey MR. FX. Very useful tutorial, thank you. I want to export this simulation as particle animation with position and rotation variables. So I can import it to Cinema 4D and clone my objects on exported particles. How I can do it? I only want variables and particles without geometry.

[@harshavardhanks2624]

excellent video, just wat i was looking for. Thanks

[@MRFXoriginal]

Welcome dude enjoy

[@raheel_qureshi]

nice bro this is very helpful for me thanks

[@TalkThisOut]

super useful video! ty fam!

[@mareknovotny5833]

For Houdini 18.5 try to use RBD solver its much faster, use instancing in copys... it much easier for pc to calculate

[@wetpanda4140]

i tried using pack and instance in copytopoints and then using the rbd solver but its slower than the bullet solver w assemble node - what did you mean by instancing copies, is there an instance node?

[@juancarlosgzrz]

@@wetpanda4140 it is faster but collisions aren't working, he should tell the story complete

[@arsenurano4164]

thanks for your tutorial. I found that the attribute "w" seens to be broken it always has a small value like 15degree/s but I can see the object spin at a fast speed....

[@gouravkd8545]

To the point. Perfect!! Thanks.

[@MRFXoriginal]

Much appreciated

[@matze2001]

THX for this tutorial!

[@MRFXoriginal]

welcome bro

[@mithunkrishna3567]

what if I have to use a voronoi effect or material fracture for breaking those objects, also to break at specific area for collision.

[@NextroneOfficial]

Why didn't you enabled "pack and instance" option in the copytopoints sop, and instead you went with assemble?

[@onkarbhade7277]

Nice

[@gsanimation6107]

Thanks for lesson. But, how we can export to alembic this rbd?

[@mtscott44]

This is awesome thanks man. But how to create a custom collision object instead of ground plane? I can't import one...

[@sphanhoo]

Good tutorial，Thx

[@felipeseixascoelho8910]

This is GREAT, thanks a lot! If I may ask something, I made a simulation of rocks using this setup and made a material using some noises. But when I apply to the dop import of the final sim, the material does not stick to each rock, rather it stays like a big texture with the rocks passing over. I'm wondering that I need to make a uv for each rock, do you have any ideia of how? Thanks again!

[@MRFXoriginal]

First of all cache ur rbd sim as points in dopimport then use us uv rocks with transfoem point node it should work

[@felipeseixascoelho8910]

@@MRFXoriginal Thanks for your quick answer! Congrats for your work!

[@StaticX73]

how your simulation goes fat inside the dopnet node? mine goes super slow

[@SwitchMaxFX]

how can i replace the low res pieces with high res geo?

[@MRFXoriginal]

U can use transform pieces or u can use vex also

[@SwitchMaxFX]

@@MRFXoriginal having some trouble with the setup here. this is my node setup currently. is there something I have to add also in the dopnet node? i.imgur.com/GP8qsdt.png

[@gouravkd8545]

what if I want to replace all the primitive geometry to high poly meshes AFTER the simulation. Is it possible? As far as I know, if initial geometry is not changed, then it is possible but in our case initial geometry is continuously generated with particle system which then seem hard to replace to our custom mesh (high poly mesh).

[@MRFXoriginal]

We can give some attribute to our geometry and then we can replace them with high poly based on those attribute

[@MRFXoriginal]

Btw nice thought i will give it a try

[@rostyslavshmatkov8112]

How increase pscale with time if we delete particles? I want my sphere make bigger with age.

[@jingchen3863]

Hi , How to make sure the color and texture of each instance will remain after the RBD Dop network simulation ?

[@MRFXoriginal]

join the whatsapp group and discuss there

[@christopherhearty5451]

How do you apply materials to the specific objects like in the thumbnail?

[@MRFXoriginal]

In starting when we connect object to the switch node use material node and apply material to the objects

[@kaumbakonga2144]

is there a way to have the objects follow a path?

[@MRFXoriginal]

yes with a curve i hope u can do that

[@juancarlosgzrz]

yeah, how?

[@romangoncharov9749]

Hi, how setup partical behaviour for stick to surface ?

[@MRFXoriginal]

u can ray to the surface geometry if its plane

[@krishnanunnib4546]

Won't this create a lot of rbd-packed objects? (Check spreadsheet)

[@surendirenparthasarathy9087]

How to export end to alembic?

[@kyozhan7172]

hello,not all of em can be render out,why?

[@MRFXoriginal]

They can be rendered

[@markssali7528]

this deosnt work with houdini 19 ,keep in mind

[@juancarlosgzrz]

This doesn't work with Houdini 19

[@Mati_Motion]

I already noticed that trying in 19.5 ... that sucks... how to do it ?

[@controlCcontrolVmedia]

i had to turn off the first gravity node inside the POP-network >>>>>>>I hope this comment will save someone 2 hours of scratching ur head
