013a - Knitting a Flower
Added 2023-02-27 08:05:49 +0000 UTCIn this tutorial we'll cover the techniques of creating lines, extracting points with pscale and orients. We'll then create our own hooks, copy them onto the points and time offset them with a mops falloff.
Comments
Make sure your object coming in is actually polygons. Sometimes importing geometry it imports it as packed geometry. then the point deform won't work.

I recreated the embroidery effect and applied it to a Houdini grid with the point deformer and it works without a problem. However, when I import a surface from outside as a .obj or .abc, the point deform stops working. Do I need to do anything to the imported geometry to fix it?

I gave a try with a logo but i've got some strange behavior regarding the direction of some parts which should be uniform. I'm on it since 2 days, and as i'm quite new in houdini, i'm running out of solutions :/ Is there any chance i can send you a capture so maybe you could give some advice to correct it ?

2023-05-22 07:20:02 +0000 UTCI gave a try with a sort of Ralph Lauren logo silhouette and the Divide with Remove Shared Edge was messing up the little indent details... In the end I solved using the Extract Silhouette Labs node with Remove Outside of Silhouette ticked on... It made everything easy and actually very fast to calculate then in the for each loop, much faster than before
