You guys are genius. Thank you for this. This kills off the last advantage c4d had. It is like sidefx made this. Sidefx listen up. You need to have some serious talks with these guys. This is beyond impressive.
While I see the goodness I dont think it will kill it off because C4D has such an extensive user set and current use case scenario and MoGraph integrates and extends its capabilities easily for most graphic designers. I only have Houdini and MOPS and there are some things I may not be able to do in houdini that are easier in C4D.
Instancing several objects with randomization inside of Houdini has always beena huge road block for me. It seems like doing it with Vanilla Houdini there is no way around dealing with VEX and Quaternions.... It really drives me crazy when you'd think its such a common simple feature (and Blender Geo Nodes does it so intuitively). So I installed MOPS and discovered the MOPs Instance + MOPs Randomize , and intuitively figured out how they work in less than 5 minutes. THANK YOU. SO MUCH THANK YOU. Now I feel like I can actually go and use Houdini for the common tasks I want to use it for without needing to go get a computer science degree!!!
I got MOPS and MOPS+ but I am having a hard time aligning the instances onto a shape I have predefined. The instancer creates randomly distributed copies not physically aligned, I would like to align the copies along the shape and I want to be able to control the dispersion.
It's extremely complicated to install into Houdini. For some of us who are not developers, the installation instructions are nothing more than foreign language. Please help!!! But overall, I really like the end goal.
WHAt? you literally just have to copy 2 lines of text and past it into a .env file, that its just a text file. if you cant do that i dont think you can handle houdini.

THANKYOU!! This is a game changer ❤️Side FX please integrate this operator to the new build. It is worthy!
Great work building MOPS! Much needed toolset, especially helpful for newbies.
Totally agree with your development formula (time estimate *3 + 1)
This is an amazing resource. Thanks.
good stuff.. lots of work has been put to this addon, thanks, will try it for sure
hey Side fx , please include this awesome stuff , we need it. No need more to jump over the softs.
Cinema 4D actions now in Houdini!!!
Cinema 4D actions now easier* in Houdini for beginners* 😋
Waow, amazing tools ! Thx :-)
amazing stuff, the move along spline changed quite a lot, how can this be recreated now?
amazing!Magic Houdini!
Nice operators, very useful
this is why with any recording i do, i use 2 mics. 1 on laptop and my main on the desktop. so if SOMETHING ever happens, i have the backup.
2023 H19.5, the move along spline doesnt behave... Also mops convert followed by reorient doesnt work...
Fantastic!! Thank you guys!
LOL!
Lots of Love Mo💓

Impossible to figure out how to install this on Mac if you are not a developer
Anyone having luck installing it on Mac? Can't find any houdini.env file. I'm on version 17. Cheers,
hahaha... well done Moritz

Did you follow the video instructions?
The main problem I had with was adding the code to the environment file.
WHAt? you literally just have to copy 2 lines of text and past it into a .env file, that its just a text file. if you cant do that i dont think you can handle houdini.
Is it in a new Houdini version or is it a addon or...?
Just watch the video or read the description ...
Anyone got a clue where they put "Trail" in the sweep??? It's gone and they haven't updated their tutorial videos.
I am also looking for the Trail "Mode" in the Move along Spline modifier... Have you found anything? :-)
oh. my. god.
too much water
