@FullHarbor 100% agree with this! Although would be great if clients also acknowledged emails sent especially with reviews. Last few clients I worked with barely achnowledged emails soon after a project started which was annoying!

My latest personal work. Distruction shot using RBD, pyro and particle debris sims in Houdini, rendered with Redshift. The concept originally started out as RnD on a client project that fell through but really pleased with how the shot turned out. #Houdini #SideFX #redshift

Need to get better at sharing my stuff on here! Vellum cloth sim using #houdini

@mariosundays Same here, moved from maya to Houdini 2 years ago. Only thing I miss is the marking menu system as it was very easy to get into muscle memory

@Dann_Sw Honestly who ever designed these logos have never used these programs.. No one who has used Maya or Max would ever do this to them. Who thought these looked good!

@KevRyanCG Nit sure how big your sim cashe is but I had a 30gb cash that automatically uploaded fine.. Took a good few hours to upload on my crappy Internet but the version of the gridmarkers node I had handled it all fine.. uploading files did not use any credits which was good

@Fifty_5o The aio rad should not go in bottom of the case unless you have airflow through the bottom of your case. Aio's rads are usually Mounted to the front or top of the case where air flow comes in or out to cool the rad.

@Brianmac90 Savage work man! 🔥

@therustedpixel Dude that sucks!

@hexeract01 It's bloody impossible to get a 3090 here in Ireland.. Let alone a founders edition!

Some RnD work I did during a CGMA course over the summer on pyro collisions. An obvious fail but a funny accident. Something went wrong where the entire collisions geo became the smoke emitter for 2 frames.

@KevRyanCG The lighting looks Savage! And better than a lot of nfts..

[johnhayesvfx @johnhayesvfx]

@iamrossmason Ya ever since they added the "send AE crash report" window it seems to crash way more.. I seem to get loads of crashes just opening the app.. Not even opening a project.

@PaulEsteves28 These quick videos you are making are amazing! Honestly learning so much tips I never knew! SideFX needs to have these videos attached to the help on all the nodes! Honestly didn't know this tool existed in Houdini.. Looks similar to the quad draw tool in maya. Cheers man!

[johnhayesvfx @johnhayesvfx]

@iamrossmason 100% agree! Just muted all associated NFT things last night. Got a little depressed watching this gated community boast about how much they were making with it!

Another logo identity reveal! Made using the smoke solver and VDB volumes in Houdini. Comp done in AE.
Picked up some fantastic techniques from @kunzxl
