Imagers, operators and camera shaders inside Solaris

Hey folks! Is there a way to add operators, imagers and camera shaders inside Solaris? Couldn't find any info, though there is an option to turn off operators inside the override render settings in Solaris. Trying to use Zeno Pelgrim's Lentil and did not want to export the USD to another DCC just to add the lens shaders on top of it.

If not, are there plans to add them?

Sorry, none of those are currently supported in Solaris.

No worries. There is always a workaround. Do you know about plans to support it?

Hey!

Yes, we are planning to add support for these. There are HTOA-1601, HTOA-1750, and HTOA-1749 on the HtoA side (LOP/interfacework) and https://github.com/Autodesk/arnold-usd/issues/748, https://github.com/Autodesk/arnold-usd/issues/807, and https://github.com/Autodesk/arnold-usd/issues/740 on the Arnold-USD side (render delegate and USD imaging plugins).

Awesome! I was opening the final USD scene in Maya and adding the Lentil camera. No problem doing this. Will be super awesome to be able to do all this without opening Maya though 😄 I hate Maya 😄

Hi, any news on this? Would make Arnold much more preferable for Houdini.

Is this because of Solaris own limitations, or it's just not implemented yet?

Message 9 of 15

Yes any information on this please?

Message 10 of 15

could you share the workflow to do so?

Message 11 of 15

Hi, are Operators for Solaris still being implemented?

We're currently interested in switching to USD and Solaris, but support for Solaris Operators and Environment Shaders is holding us back at the moment.

Oh, can you have someone update the “Known Limitations” of Solaris for HtoA in the documentation? That’s what I was going off of.
