Today we’re covering two topics in Copernicus, that are long overdue: Cellular Automata and OpenCL. CAs because they’re a classic Entagma topic and now we actually have a way in Houdini to actually build and display them directly, without the use of 2D volumes or […]

We’ve also seen the amazing video about Datamoshing in Unreal Engine by Jam2Go and couldn’t help but wondering: Can pull this off in Houdini as well? And with a bit of Karma-, SOPs-, and Copernicus-Magic, this is actually quite easy and fun to pull off! […]
Let’s take a quick break from Copernicus and build a good, old fashioned, simple SOPs setup. And also recreate a look from additive manufacturing, that we like quite a lot here: 3d printing with clay instead of thermoplastics – which is mostly like regular 3d […]

This course is about making Machine Learning the next tool in your Houdini toolbox. Just like some problems are best solved with vector maths or Vex or Python, some problems get way easier with ML and we want to be able to spot these problems […]
One of those really fun party trick brushes of Substance Painter is the particle brush, with which we can, well, paint particles onto an object, which in turn will run down it’s surface, leaving some nice streaks behind. Houdini has had particles for ages and […]
In the last video, we showed you our take on a Substance like pbr layering workflow in Copernicus. And in that video we used a custom Digital Asset that allowed us to quickly load in all textures of a pbr material, do some basic tweaks […]
We’re back! And Houdini now has Copernicus, a complete rebuild of the image workspace with a focus on texturing! So, let’s see if we can build a texturing workflow where we can bring in multiple pbr texture sets and layer them onto an object with […]
