Re: My Houdini learning thread
No but I used smooth vertex normals and 2 sided lighting (stylized tree style). About the coding: Its not absolutely necessary to code, but it can simplify some things sometimes. So far I haven't had to code to make these. -

Hi. Ill make the mannequin standing there next time. Maybe I'll add a few trees too later. This is a roughly 5x5m area. Moss size is a little bit exaggerated, they are like 5 cm long, so less planes makes more dense look. The moss is scattered based on a texture - attribute from map node drives the density of a scatter… -

It teaches you some important basics. After that, I was able to implement own ideas with minimal google searching, since im still not very…
