Free Houdini Files: Solaris Essentials Ep.17 MaterialX BSDFs (SideFX)

Overview

These free Houdini project files belong to the Solaris Essentials series by Adam Swaab, published on SideFX's official Houdini channel; episode 17 covers MaterialX BSDFs. The lesson works through the diffuse, reflective, glassy and metal BSDF nodes and how to layer and mix them, applied to the series' mech project and rendered with Karma CPU.

The shared project files for the entire series, including the mech and terrain assets, come as a 3.7 GB zip hosted on media.sidefx.com as a direct download, with no Houdini version stated. A thorough resource for learning MaterialX shading in Solaris.
