Problem:.obj from Houdini changed with boolean Tweet

-This is also postet in sidefx Houdini forum-


I am testing Houdini 16 apprentice.
I have created a box and then carved a hole with a tube using boolean.

Then i save/render it to disk, using file node, render to other - geometry.

When i import the .obj into Octane Render, there is no hole.


I have found out that the problem is in Octane Render standalone .(maybe I am missing a setting in OR)
The geometry is not showing correct when I add the mesh(.obj)

If I import it into Blender the mesh is correct, is it a bug or am I doing it wrong?

Thx

Let us see the OBJ.

I have uploaded the .obj file

Your OBJ is made of Ngons and that is the problem. Convert it to quads or tris.

Ok, thank you.

I will see if i can change that easily in Houdini
