Free Tutorial: Triplanar Mapping pt. 2 – Normal Maps

In the second Part of this Tutorial, we will tackle Normal Maps. We will talk about coordinate systems and why they affect Normal maps and how to create a system that works even with changing objects. Watch part 1 here: Triplanar Mapping in COPs pt. […]

Free Tutorial: Triplanar Mapping in COPs – pt. 1

This was asked for in the comments a lot, so Chris made this two-part Tutorial on Triplanar texture Mapping in Copernicus! In this first Video Chris will go into Detail on how to set up a neat triplanar mapping Setup and will guide you through […]

Building a Particle Brush for Copernicus

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 […]

Building a PBR layering asset in Copernicus

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 […]

Building a Substance like texturing workflow in Copernicus

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 […]

Houdini: Baking Point Attributes To Textures

EDIT: For more point to texture attribute trickery have a look at the scene files. In our tutorial on dissolving geometry we hinted at baking point distances into a texture rather than using highly subdivided geometry to store attributes from a point cloud. While this […]
