You can never have enough bird-feeders! 🐧

Houdini’s Pyro solver is so much fun to use and it’s crazy powerful. It allows for 100% creative control over every aspect of the simulation. 🔥🔥🔥

OK I think Pyro might be my new favourite solver in Houdini. This is a super easy setup and you have full control over every aspect of the simulation - no AI required. 😁

They say learning Houdini will be fun! Okay honestly I’m enjoying every second of it even though it’s getting a bit interesting now, as math was never my favourite… Why am I loving this so much! 😆

Fun with cubes! Super simple setup using an attribute noise on the P attribute's Y axis only. Then use as a RBD collider. #houdini

Two emitters, double the fun! #houdini

Houdini Pyro experiments are always so much fun. Add some noise to your source’s velocities and bam, tyre smoke or something!

Some more #Houdini experiments. The find shortest path node is so much fun. I use a carve node to only show a section of the curves and then I twist everything at the end.

Some early morning #Houdini R&D. No glue constraints needed! I generated impact points with an "active" attribute set to 1. Then transfer the active attribute using a simple attribute transfer with a distance threshold inside a sop solver. Really easy way to create realistic destruction setups.

Wow just did my first manual track in Syntheyes and I’m sold. Great workflow but the interface is a bit crazy. 😳😅🙌🏼

Found a new little friend at the pond today, and saved a froggy from his jaw… So he unfortunately must move. Will relocate him to a nice forest tomorrow. 🐍 🐸 🌳

Yes!! I think I now understand this workflow in Houdini. It does require a tiny bit of vex code but really easy to understand. Can be used for so many things. 🙌🏼
