Global Museum<a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/TodayinSpyHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TodayinSpyHistory</a> is Harry Houdini's Birthday! Born on March 24, 1874, the world knows Harry <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Houdini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Houdini</a> as the greatest escape artist of all time—but was he also working in the shadows as a spy?Declassified <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/CIA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CIA</a> documents reveal that Houdini’s escape techniques influenced real-life espionage tactics and gadgets. Concealment devices, such as magic coins and Houdini's hollow Mokana shoe—used to hide escape tools—became widely adopted by spies during the Cold War. <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/magic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#magic</a>

Jens ZalzalaOMG, I'm working on a Houdini render, and I accidentally set the template flag instead of the render flag, and then spent the next hour trying to figure out why my render wasn't looking right. 🤦<a href="https://mograph.social/tags/houdini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#houdini</a> <a href="https://mograph.social/tags/vfx" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vfx</a>

Jens ZalzalaI'm designing a new chicken run. It's going to be somewhat temporary until we build a whole new coop. The main goal right now is to keep sparrows out. They've started swarming in by the hundreds, and are eating all our chicken's food. Not to mention that bird flu is a concern these days...<a href="https://mograph.social/tags/chickens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#chickens</a> <a href="https://mograph.social/tags/houdini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#houdini</a>

Stefan IhringerWe've started to train/improve some roto models in <a href="https://mograph.social/tags/Nuke" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nuke</a>. The odd thing is that both Nuke and our main renderer (<a href="https://mograph.social/tags/Houdini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Houdini</a> Karma) will max out the GPU when they're at work. But Nuke's Inference node will make the graphics card draw way more power and it will heat it up more. How can 100% utilisation mean different things depending on what you're executing on the GPU?<a href="https://mograph.social/tags/Compositing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Compositing</a>

TheBiteyCat | Solo Indie DevHey <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/unrealengine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#unrealengine</a> folks! I am making an animated barnacle. It's a background object so nothing interactive. How do you normally animate these? I'm likely going to use VAT but as someone who's never worked in a game studio I have no idea how the pros animate background objects. Or heck, grass! Thanks!(BTW: Here are some of my other vat tests in unreal: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y21pkqaNckY" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y21pkqaNckY</a>)<a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/gamedev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gamedev</a> <a href="https://mastodon.gamedev.place/tags/houdini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#houdini</a>

Gallen 🔜 EFFor example one really odd thing is keyframing values, say I'm keyframing values on a karma materialX subnet - the keyframed inputs are not picked up by solaris. I need like a material edit lop in order for it to work. Its fine once you get to know this, but it breaks convention from regular <a href="https://meow.social/tags/houdini" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#houdini</a> workflow.I am also not a fan of the layering system, it's confusing AF. Like having to put in layer breaks in the proper place so my test scene/lighting when I export to usd does not fuck up the scene the lighting dept is working on. And due to the non destructive workflow, doing that doesn't remove my scene/lighting, it only deactivates it so it's still in the scene. _almost_ kind of wish I could use Katana here. At least with Katana its usually soooo customized by the studio I usually have templates provided for me that I plug in my effects and that's it. Usually anyways.Thankfully not having to deal with layers on my own tiny project lol.
