Keanu Reaves voice: You're breathtaking!
Great approaches 🙂

Thanks!

[@dnch]

you could use attribute from pieces instead of attribute adjust so you dont have to manually set the min max

[@dnch]

interesting workflow, i do this with foreach point and copy the geometry in the loop and do intersection analysis to detect if the new copy intersects with existing geometry, then use switch that works by counting the points in interesction analysis node and if its 0 there are no intersections so the copy can stay

how do you solve the time incriasing the more items you have?

[@dnch]

@@ThiagoLaranjeiraZerooneBit i dont.. yeah its costly lol.. you could use low poly proxies and optimize it.. or check out the entagma dart throwing tutorial, bit advanced and didnt test it myself but seems much much faster

[@ThiagoLaranjeiraZerooneBit]

@@dnch thx for reply, the entagma tut work because the geos are the same, just spheres, but if you have different meshs the pscale wont solve itbecause its non uniform, any other tip?

Hi. Thank you for this great tutorial,very enlightening. A bit off-topic, but may I ask how I can find the radial menu you used to switch views on 1:53? Is it a custom radial menu that you created? I’ve been desperately looking for it, but couldn’t find it in the list. I tried my hand at coding one myself. It kind of worked but spewed out errors at every session launch 🙁Cheers…

[@viktors_anfimovs]

Its in my toolkit in description from git hub. I made it bacauce of houdini by default lacks it. Go ahead and download it!

[@noc2_art]

@@viktors_anfimovs You, my dear sir, are a true gem. Thank you for all the awesomeness!!! 👍👍🙏🙏❤️❤️

[@ysf3525]

Thanks for the tut! How does that code completion work? Any directions how to set it up?

[@viktors_anfimovs]

Thank you! In code marketplace just search VEX, and you can get an extension.

I think there is a way with polydoctor as well but I don't know how
