Yes, I realize the plug does it automatic, basically not need Roahn stuff anymore also get as Alembic cache (not csv scatter) I realize is perfect and way stable for XB4 I have full PLY Pointcloud straight there really faster and stable. with the alembic cache.


All done :D !
Yes but we need ...

Awesome I also did meshlab save as xyz file change to .txt and is working well only trying to find how to put the color but you totally right Houdini save the day there hehehe!

Pretty ! Follow this to get the color in houdini:

This is interesting, and looking really good did you use the ply with the vertex color and generate the scatter on Houdini? or other way?

Hi Jolbertoquini,
Yes this is exactly my workflow for Houdini. You can also wrote a script to directly translate the .ply, What I've done for my company ...

I can send you a private message an .orbx by wetransfer tomorrow morning (Paris)

Is it a render failure or Octane crashes when you try to render? Are you running out of VRAM in v4?

hi haze,
I get a gpu failure in both out-of-core on/off, octane v4 xb4.
Octane is not shutdown.

I am making some sort of point cloud rendering in octane using scatter node.

I can easily load over 10 millions points in octane 3 but no way for v 4, even with out-of-core turned on. Please tell me that will be fixed.
The dream for v4 may be to be able to handel 1 billion instance or closer.
I ...

Hi juanjgon,
I try to optimize computation time to get photogrammetric point cloud ready for rendering. It time consuming to convert millions points in houdini.

This can realy help me

Hi,
I need to translate a bunch of RGB color to fit the rgb4k_map.ppm so i'm looking for the formula.

Can you help me ?

Hi all,
I wrote a script to perform automatic node connection in Octane standalone in order to speed up my workflow.
The script try to connect the selected nodes based on vertical position on the graph, alt+v shortcut.
