Free Houdini Scene: RBD Cluster SOP Explained (Houdinicrumbs HICko)
Original title: Understanding of RBD Cluster SOP (feat. Cluster Points SOP/Attribute Transfer SOP)
Overview
This Houdini scene accompanies Houdinicrumbs' Korean video 'Understanding of RBD Cluster SOP', which also covers the Cluster Points SOP and Attribute Transfer SOP. It covers the fundamentals of clustering fractured pieces for a Bullet RBD simulation: Voronoi noise size and jitter, clustering driven by attributes, convex versus concave RBD behaviour, and combining pieces with group-based constraints.
The scene file is attached to a post in the HICko Naver cafe, free but visible only to cafe members, so a Naver account and cafe signup are required; the file name is not visible to non-members. It is a solid reference for FX artists learning RBD destruction workflows in Houdini.
