‌Houdini Instructions ‌

There are several options to export to Houdini:

 Universal Scene Description (USD) files,

 Filmbox (FBX) files ,

 Alembic (ABC) files ,

 Houdini CMD files,

 Houdini Clip files.

The first three are general formats that can communicate much information, including meshes and texturing. See the respective sections for information on those exports. The CMD option is more limited; the clip file contains only camera data.

You can use File/Run Script to run the exported CMD file in Houdini. Here's an older procedure also:

1. File/New unless you are addding to your existing scene.

2. Open the script Textport

3. Type source "c:/shots/scenes/flyover.cmd" or equivalent.

4. Change back from COPs to OBJs.
