Introduction

SideFX Houdini is a procedural node based professional 3D animation and visual effects tools for film, broadcast, entertainment and visualization productions.

The Maxwell Render for Houdini plug-in provides a close integration between Maxwell Render and SideFX Houdini for Windows 32/64-bit, Mac OSX and Linux 64-bit platforms.The plug-in makes it possible to set Maxwell Render specific parameters within Houdini and exports complex scenes to Maxwell Render. 

This documentation describes the parameters and interfaces of the plug-in components.

Limitations

The current version of the plug-in exports polygon objects only, objects which contains curves are skipped. The Maxwell Render ROP node gives a warning message if it detects non-polygonal faces.
