Houdini Snippet Vol.16 – Rain & Droplet
Some tests about rain/droplets. A task where i always wanted to developing my own setup. Here my results. The piggy hip-file: 003_droplet_rain_iter_04_setup_V002__NS.zip

Houdini Snippet Vol.13 – Burning Paper
The main goal of this test was to ignite a fuel-field(paper) from a temperature emitting object(candle). I managed this with embedded fields. So i did this little paper-burn scenario, with a desintegration effect on top. Im still testing to achieve better, more realistic flames. For the desintegration effect i created two levels of clusters, which
Houdini Snippet Vol.12 – Texture Workflow
Here are some kind of ideas for simplifying the texture handling from Substance Painter to Houdini. Therefor i use the gallery preset system and create a little prototype of script to add all baked maps from Substance Painter, with one click. This snippet is a bit low-end but i guess usefull for other automatism, as
Mandelbulb – Snippet Vol.9
Mandelbulb fractal visualization and variances. Little Math and VEX exercise. Kudos to Junichiro Horikawa and his channel, check it out and VEX-it yourself. .hip-file: 026_MultiFractal_MultiFractalSetup_Export_001__NS.zip Setup: Here some testing to solve the equation just in camera space, to scale the pointcounts. Phase shifting: For a phase shift, just add a “phaseShift” variable for the
Porsche 917
The legendary Porsche 917 – one of my favourite cars. First 24h Le Mans winning Porsche in 1970. Responsable for all tasks. Modeling/Shading and Rigging in Softimage. UVs in UVLayout, Textures in Substance Painter. Renderscene/Grassscatter/Platform in Houdini. Rendering with Redshift. Small CC and Comp in Fusion. Exhaust-Fire test with the Pyro-Solver: Some renders from shots
Scripting/Tools/Workflow Houdini
I developed these scripts to make my “3D/Houdini” life a bit easier and cleaner. Was a lot of fun to create and i learned a lot! All done in Python/PyQT. Maybe a bit boring. If not, please watch in Fullscreen and Fullres. Updates: http://www.enoni.de/wp/?p=1619 00:08 ns_Version: Files/Pyton Scripts Location 00:45 ns_Version: ns_FolderMaker 01:17 ns_Version: Create
Dustdevil – Snippet Vol.8
Testing and messing around with some volumes, vectorfields and DOPs. Done in Houdini with Redshift. Overview. Main Setup: Using an animated curve. I used velocity from particles to fill the volumes. I created a main “Vortex Particle” sim and a wide area sim and mix them together before sourcing. I also split up the ground
Stone – Snippet Vol.7
Some testing with photogrammetry, particle, lines and volumes. Done with Houdini, Redshift and Fusion. Overview. This is a older Setup. You dont have to instancing particles in Redshift anymore. For a couple of month they implemented their own particle primitive. Photogrammetry done with Agisoft, Canon6D, 2xRemote Flashes + Softbox and a Bluescreen. Displacement-map generation and remeshing
Deform&Growing – Snippet Vol.6
This visual test has two “main” procedual effects, the sin-deformer and the growing pattern. Done with Houdini, Redshift and Fusion. Scene: Deforming & Growing Setup Overview: The deforming VOP-SOP: The growing Part: volume & top-layer The point-wrangle SOP, polylines are rendered as strands in Redshift (Strip) 9 million points defining the polyline positions. Placed with
