HOUDINI HDA:
Percent Formulas
3 ways of computing percent, result on detail. Handy in many cases !
HOUDINI HDA :
tyFlow Tools
A set of HDAs that mimics the most useful tyFlow features. Might this help you to do the transition between tyFlow and Houdini !
tyFlow Script : Particles position Z
This script allows you to replace the particles meshs on the ground if their pivots are at the center of the mesh rather than at the bottom.
MaxScript :
tyFlow Batch Exports
Add export particles operators to several tyFlows and proceed their exports.
MaxScript : Turbosmooths control
Control turbmosmooths modifiers on selected objects.
MaxScript :
Mat to Vray Switcher
This script will combine the materials of each selected object into a vray mtl switcher. It can also assign a tyProperties modifier to each object with a custom float value corresponding to their material location in the switcher. This channel can then be used in tyFlow.
MaxScript :
tyProperties obj ID
Assign tyProperties modifiers to your current selection with a custom float channel whose values corresponds the Objects IDs.
Use this Channel into an export particle operator (Objects export mode) in order to keep properly the objects IDs on the exported nodes. Tyflow plugin is required.
PFlow Utilities and Data Operators
Deprecated, use tyFlow instead.
HOUDINI PYTHON :
Usefull pipe tools
Handy python tools for houdini (shelf and sop node).
tyFlow script :
Mult Vel by Texmap
Multiply the particles vel according to the greyscale value of the particle's closest point geometry surface.
tyFlow Script :
Scale by Velocity
This script multiplies the particle's initial scale by the velocity magnitude. That way, if the velocity is equal to 0, the scale will be equal to 0. Several options are provided.
tyFlow Script :
Value over Life
Generates a custom float that decrease over the particle's life. Useful in many cases.
MaxScript :
tyCache Control
Control tyCaches display and timing.
Tyflow plugin is required.
MaxScript :
Sort by Obj/Mat ID
Compare the Object ID or the material ID of each selected object to the chosen value. If both values are matching, the object is moved in a new layer.
MaxScript :
Textures to ID
The purpose of this script is to catch a texture animation at each frame in an individual submaterial. You can animate the textures map's coordinates parameters and most of the usuals parameters such as size, colors, phase, etc.
HOUDINI HDA :
Cartoony Ripples
Easy to compute, several meshing and animation options. Suitable for static and animated meshes. Enjoy !
tyFlow setup : mapping by distance
Not a proper script but a cool trick to make an easy mapping by distance.
MaxScript :
AutoRig tyBinds
Create a tyBind helper for each selected object that has a parent.
tyFlow Script :
Play Multisub Sequences by material ID
Combine all the multisubs affected to your selected objets and generate a tyFlow Script to play the different sequences.
MaxScript :
Materials to Multisub
This script will combine the materials of each selected object into a multisub. It can also assign a tyProperties modifier to each object with a custom float value corresponding to their material location in the multisub. This channel can then be used in tyFlow.
MaxScript :
tyFlow Open Editor
Use it as a macro script to create a new tyFlow object and open it's editor.
If a tyFlow already exist in your scene it will open it's editor.
MaxScript :
Batch tyPreviews
Make tyPreviews for multiples files. Tyflow plugin is required.
