Mix 05 - trailer
Added 2022-10-08 07:58:59 +0000 UTCHello patrons,
This mix is not really a mix. What I mean by that is that the two topics covered in this video have a relationship between each other but also with a topic that we will be discussing soon in the USD series.
In the first part of the video we are going to be talking about ingesting lidar scans of natural environments in our pipeline. We will process the lidars to be used as heightfields. Then, we will extract some attributes based on the pointcloud data, later we will create additional attributes that can be used for scattering and lookdev.
Finally, we will export all the data to be used in a different 3D software or in a game engine. Or just to be used in Houdini. Total flexibility.
In the second part of the video we will explore the basics of scattering and distribution in LOPs. This video covers how distribution works under the hood. We will explore random functions and noise patterns to create natural scattering similar to what we can find in nature.
Almost 6 hours of content divided in two videos.
Thanks!
Xuan.

Hola patrons,
Este video es un mix, aunque a diferencia de otros mixes anteriores, los tópicos de este video tienen relación entre sí, y además, relación con un tópico que cubriremos pronto en la serie USD.
En la primera parte de este video vamos a hablar sobre lidar scans de entornos naturales. Como introducirlos en nuestro pipeline, en Houdini. Extraeremos información que venga dada en el pointcloud y además crearemos información adicional para ser utilizada tanto en scattering como en lookdev. Finalmente veremos como exportar todo a cualquier software 3D, utilizarlo en un game engine o simplemente quedarnos en Houdini.
En la segunda parte del video, vamos a explorar los conceptos basicos sobre scattering y distribucion en LOPs. Este video cubre los conceptos esenciales sobre distribución para crear entornos naturales, desde utilizar funciones random hasta procedural patterns.
En total casi 6 horas de contenido.
Gracias,
Xuan.

Still on part 4, finally I got some time to go trough this series. Looking forward for this one. At first I was a bit lost with all the different approaches out there to deal with USD, but then I came full circle and that little trip helped me to understand better Xuan approach on USD, thanks again for this series. Looking forward for part 5.
