Hi Beppe, is the Black Friday deal ending this Thursday the 5th or next Thursday the 12th?

This is a very minor UI bug and I'm sure there are plenty of other more important issues to focus on, but I thought I'd mention so it can be added to the bottom of the polishing list.. The toolbar in the QT5 IPR window on Mac is 3x the height that it is on PC and ends up eating a lot of room on a ...

Does the QT5 IPR window respect the Options menu IPR Window Size and or Camera mult [%] parameters? I'm only able to modify the Qt5 render size by changing the camera resolution. This works fine in the Custom OpenGL IPR.

Thanks!

I've run into that same issue using the region tool many times. It's been at least a year since I first encountered it. I also have to restart Houdini to clear the issue and render again.

Hey Juanjo,

I'm noticing that MPlay takes a significant amount of time to start up for the first time if rendering is active in the Qt5 IPR window when you click the MPlay Snapshot button, even if it has completed the max samples. If you turn off rendering (toggle the play button) before attempting ...

Here's an easy workaround:

In the Img context create a Comp node if none exists. Create a color node inside. Select the color node and copy it to the clipboard. Then in your Octane Render Target in the TEXT Environment tab paste the path into the Texture filename param field. Put op: in front of ...

Hey Juanjo,

I'm wondering if there's a way to change the default behavior of a light turning pink when turned off from within the node's 'Light' parameter tab. Its a great feature that you can toggle this switch and see the effects in the IPR without needing to manually reload like is the case when ...

Hey Juanjo,

Just getting around to this and realized I overwrote the file since my last comment. I can't seem to reproduce the issue now so am assuming that a restart may have solved it. Anyway, if I come across the issue again and can reproduce I'll send the file along immediately.

Hi Juanjo,

I'm noticing in this build that I'm getting pretty frequent crashes where the IPR is trying to load one of the lights. The crash takes Houdini down entirely and no crash file is created. The IPR status will hang as it's stating that it's loading one of the lights and then all crashes. It ...

Hey Juanjo,

I'm using the Spectron spotlight and can't figure out how to get the geometry in the Scene View to reflect the Throw Distance and Cone Width settings. The cone geo stays the same size regardless. I seem to remember this updating in earlier versions, but I'm not 100%.
