Check Out Threadify, a Tool That Makes Ropes, Threads, and Yarn Eaily in Houdini

By November 1, 2023No Comments

Bola Studio’s Threadify for Houdini is a fast way to make realistic ropes, threads, knits, and yarn.

Antonio Souza (Bola Studio) created a Houdini Digital Asset (HDA) that helps to develop and animate things like ropes, threads, knitted woven patterns, and yarn in Side FX Houdini.

Threadify (in beta) is an HDA that quickly generates fibers and geometry for realism. Connect the node to any set of curves or lines, and it will create a thread geometry for each primitive using the available attributes. The tool can make realistic bends and curls of the fibers at the tips.
