but I get it, the CAD-type softwares out there take a while to learn and are often not very intuitive for a modeler used to something like Blender or old-schoolers still using Maya for modeling.
I've work in all industries mentioned above but not seen a single person use a CAD software, even for car modeling. Blender's modeling stack with all its addons leveraging it and Modo's meshFusion sits somewhere in-between the two imo, but they're still far from a replacement. What's out there right now (Rhino/Moi3d/Autodesk's stuff) doesn't seem to gain traction in games/animation/vfx, while parametric is a much better suited way of working for some tasks.
Seeing as I doubt Houdini will ever catch up when it comes to direct modeling I too would love to see it introduce parametric modeling. evaluations, precision, g2 and g3 blending and etc) and power of houdini tools. SideFX please add NURBS functionality to H20! )Īfter several years in Alias Autostudio (really old software) i dream of mix power parametric surfaces (surf. Well, I just setup a Solaris Viewer linked to the Solaris Network View tab and an Obj Network View tab linked to a normal Scene Viewer and it works great, I can modify meshes/geometry in sop context in the Geometry Network and see the Karma update in the Solaris Viewer, very good, thanks for that Jackatack. So you can work both without changing viewers between lops and sopsCheers mate, will give that a go, the Karma ROP keeps playing up and crashing Houdini, so I am avoiding using it, Solaris is very stable and never crashes so I'm in favour of using it. One viewer with lops network linked and the other with a sop network linked to the other viewer. I love the new Karma XPU renderer, but I hate the fact that every time I want to edit the geometry in any way, the viewport switches out of the Karma render view and you have to get back to the Karma render view after you have edited or moved the geometry, I know that you can do the transformations in Solaris, but I like to do old school, but I suppose I could just use the Karma rop instead.To avoid this, i always work with solaris with 2 viewers with 2 nodegraphs linked.
