Procedural Modeling | First steps with Houdini

Why is my boolean not showing anything?

This is an excellent tutorial. I really appreciate you sharing it with us. It's the answer to a problem I had in modeling a jet airliner nose and windshield areas that technically baffled me with its complex intersecting curvilinear forms. Thanks.

Even though the video is a bit old, I hope you're still reading this.

I'm currently an absolute beginner in Houdini, so forgive me a little for the question and criticism.

First of all, from the tutorial point of view, it clicked a little quickly. Sometimes you can't even click pause fast enough to see what just happened. Well, it works at 0.25 times the speed.

But what I haven't found is where the group "abseams" suddenly comes from.

Maybe you can help me with that, just so that I understand Houdini better and don't have to search everything again at 0.25 times the speed.

I wish I could give you a thousand thousand likes😍

I really hope you continue with these gothic tutorials!

Great

It's a little slow that you spent 90 seconds creating a shape you can get with the Circle SOP set to Open Arc and Arc Angles 0-60. Don't mess with "magic numbers" like you used in Carve SOP if you don't have to..

bet you came from Intro to Houdini for 3D artist
