Use TOPs in Houdini to Cache Large Simulations
I have been doing quite a bit of RND behind the scenes! And in order to do that we have to be efficient with not only our time but our whole process. Using a top network in Houdini is essential in the production setting, so having an understanding of how to use TOPs in Houdini to cache large simulations is a tool that every artist should have in their bag. In this video, I will break down how to quickly set up your network so you can cache your whole scene all at once!

I would have liked to watch this video - the blurriness is too annoying
hello, I've got a question. How to create shadow giving Aov pass (like you created through AO) but i could not find it in c4d
I have been so far out of the c4D workflow for so long I couldn't answer it with their render engines. So assuming you are trying to create an occlusion pass which showcases where light occludes
This series is great, thank you!
cool!
yes
That's dope!
@@galestar75 thank you!
can anyone recommend a good resource for getting started? I feel very overwhelmed
Thank you, took a good hour to get that figured out. I kept piping in a single high res mesh for a set of meshes instead of a copied version. Seemed to fix it!
@@SamWelker yesss!!! I’m glad.
Thank you buddy❤
Hey, Bryant, could you please do this same (Wood Breaking Tutorial) but with an Imported "Alembic Cache" mesh File format from "Maya"? I like to get better at (importing Alembics and then Converting) them into "Polymeshes" within "Houdini". Sorry, but I'm really NEW to using "Houdini, LOL. Anyway, let me know if it's possible to do a Tutorial with that specific (Workflow). Thanks so much, Bryan, and again, great stuff here.
Great stuff. Nice tutorial, Bryan.
@@antstar1005 thank you!
I dont get the gpu per batch . I have 32 cores and I set the maximum CPU to use to all - 1. I have 4 filecaches merged in TOP so they run at the same time. Now do I have to set CPUs per batch to 8 and one to 7 so they total to 31 cores or how do you choose how many cpus per batch you use?
Its dependent on your needs, and wants. My default because of what I am doing I rarely go above 1/4 of my total count. If I am in set it and forget it mode I will go higher.
Cannot stand your audio beds.
That using of shadow pass was great. But i have a question how to use normal aov pass using after effects. Can you make a video on it.
Why not use blender?
@@ZacharyGwin blender can’t achieve what I would like to do. It’s getting there. Also I’ve been using Houdini, Maya, and NUKE for 13 years now in the industry.
👍🏼just curious. Hype on the new stuff
man how can I do this on after effects.. this is the result i looking for every ware.
@@SatyamAdhikary you can do it by blurring an alpha channel separately and using a set matte effect. It’s not as effective. At this point, NUKE is at the same price point as Creative Cloud and I’m starting to get to the point where it’s harder to endorse Adobe products.
HI, WHERE IS THE SHIP ASSET. DO YOU KNOW WHERE I CAN GET THE SHIP FROM.
Hey Paul, because I don't have the original rights to the ship asset I cannot give it out freely. I am working on at least giving you the renders in the near future for future projects.
Packed knowledge!
@@limitlessinmind ❤️🔥
This made me realise just how time efficient using TOPs is, thanks for the great video!
@@RussVFX yes! Such a critical workflow for efficiency
Thanks for the video, can't wait to get my hands on 20.5, Copernicus looks insane, I also want to test XPU on my RTX 4000 card and see if it really got that much faster!
Definitely report back on that. Low key jealous of that card!
Your videos truly helps me a lot in many ways. Not only do I learn new nodes and how to use them, I also learn how to think different which is truly important. I appreciate your hard work and the valuable time you put in to make these videos which helps others.

tnx man :)

This is 100%🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!
Houdini is the best all-in-one VFX and DCC software, but it would be a matter of time before SideFX increase their perpetual license price
I think so but at the same time they don’t habe a reason too
Such a powerful tool, what else do you guys want to explore?
Advance level Pyro explosions..basic is everyone had
This is going to be a fun one!
i think also great software alternative for photoshop is paintshop pro now also they have AI
So awesome 🎉
This is so nice! 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thank you!
Dude, you’ll love DaVinci. The worst thing about leaving Adobe is the connected ecosystem. Being able to link a PSD or VFX comp into Premiere was handy but it didn’t keep me from switching five years ago. Premiere hurt me bad with too many crashes. DaVinci has always been stellar. Not sure if you’re using the free or Studio version but Studio has some niceties you’ll probably appreciate. Extra Open FX and GPU optimization being at the top. I’ve been planning on doing a Photoshop alternative video. You may have just inspired me to jump on it. Great vid, brother, as always! 💪🏼
Jump on it! I’d rather reference your video! Yeah I have studio. I use it for only color though! And I tbh never used the dynamic link. Was too sluggish for me
im not going all in, just the tip
I mean S Painter is a really great tool. I cant imagine that houdini comes even close to that. Maybe it can beat SDesigner with its more mathmatical and node based system. Dont get me wrong I would love to cancel my adobe subscriptions but I dont think that will happen with this release of H20.5
I need to push to learn houdini, i have been wanting to make dank simulation for soo long.
Just starts with opening it up!
I’ve been wanting to switch to Davinci for a-while now. However I am a bit lazy and have been dragging my feet over learning the nose-based editing.
I’m not a fan of how clunky Davinci feels over premiere But I do love nodes. Once you go nodes you can’t go back!
Nodes are surprisingly easy to learn.It’s intuitive and incentivizes an organized compositing setup. Once you get into nodes, a traditional layer based structure seems illogical for compositing.
@@kirederf7862 agreed 💯
@@BryanHoltFX Okay, so I finally decided to stop being a baby and install Davinci, and holy crap why did I drag my feet for so long? Results I used to struggle to achieve in PR are so simple in Davinci! Thanks for the nudge my guy.
Fun fact, I edited this in Premiere Pro.
haha
lol
😂
Houdini always had a great base of tools for overtaking many other tools and now they are delivering big time. Consider this: Grooms are all done in Houdini now; They are working on a speedtree like system; Their rigging and anim system is absurdly great already; and then just for fun they made all of the COPs tools do what substance designer can to and more. If you look at how many nodes SD has it was never that hard, but for some reason they keep adding new stuff even in .5 release. Also keep in mind that other companies take years to implement or fix basic features and almost never implement whole new systems. If SideFx was a publicly traded company now would be the time to buy stock. But its not, and that's great because they can think long term. Its all coming together now.
It's hard to keep up with Houdini tools
Why I want to keep making educational content.

This is such a great technique for RBD simulations, thanks so much Mr Bryan
You are welcome! Glad I could share this!
been using houdini for 4 years, and this for sure is the best updated I have seen so far
