Houdini Network Node Flags

Image
Video is also on YouTube here . In this video, I talk about a basic feature working with Houdini: flags in network nodes. These are the display, render, template and template-shaded and lock flags. I also show how I use them in two working situations. The most note-worthy flag is the lock flag. This helps to freeze the evaluation of upstream nodes for faster evaluation of nodes downstream. A special shout-out to Kin Hoeng from Voodoo Visual (https://voodoo-visual.com) who contributed to the asset in the later demonstration.
