Houdini curve primitives are automatically translated to Maxwell curves.
Extra attributes
To define Maxwell specific parameters you can add the following extra attributes to the geometry with AttribCreate node.
Name | Class | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| mx_curve_type | Detail | Int | 0: plain curve 1: cubic curve (default) 2: hair curve |
| mx_root_radius | Detail | Float | Root radius of the curve. |
| mx_tip_radius | Detail | Float | Tip radius of the curve. |
| mx_radius | Point | Float | Radius of the curve at each break point. |
| mx_color | Point | Float | Color of each curve point. |
For example use the following settings to define tip radius:
Only Breakpoints method of the Houdini curve node is supported.
