| The
Real Flow/Houdini Extensions are a set of plugins enabling
the user to exchange data between Houdini and Real Flow, thus
leveraging the power of fluid dynamics in Real Flow with the
flexibility and power of Houdini. Real Flow will export it's
simulations as particles, meshes and SD files which contains
much of the simulation data in the attributes of the exported
data; these attributes are imported and available for use
in Houdini. Real Flow will import many object formats, .OBJ,
.DXF, etc. but the scene description file, the "SD File",
also provides Real Flow with animation data and texture attributes
which can be exported from Houdini into Real Flow.
The Real Flow SD File Export
SOP
The Real Flow SD File Export SOP (Surface Operator) will export
Houdini geometry to Real Flow SD (Scene Description) files
including deforming objects.
The Real Flow Geometry Import
SOP
The Real Flow geometry import SOP (Surface Operator) will
read Real Flow particle, mesh or SD files and import them
into Houdini as a collection of points (for the Real Flow
particles) or a polygon mesh (for the Real Flow mesh and SD
files) with all of the attributes generated in the simulation
by Real Flow.
