hi,
i have Basic question.
some tutorials shows renderings on render-view on GUI.
it's works well on our local workstation.
but, i cannot export ass from Houdini geometry on deadline with HoudiniEngine.
even simple sphere.
or particles with shape (copy_to_point), very complex geo, and so on.
FailRenderException : ERROR | [htoa.session] Object /obj/sphere1/output0 has an error and cannot be exported:
thus i have export alembic and import alembic into Arnold-Procedural.
it works well.
but this work flow has extra time and disk space.
can i export houdini geo directly into Arnold with Houdini-Engine?
is using alembic and Arnold-Procedural popular way?
thanks
What is /obj/sphere1/output0 ?
For just a sphere, you would see this in the Arnold log:
[htoa.object.geometry] Generating /obj/sphere_object1
Can you set the log level to Debug?
thanks,
does output-node in geometry seems to brings this error?
when display flag set other node not output, the rendering work well.
output is very convenience in houdini, thus i offten use it in geometry.
