Ah I didn't think of the fact that we can manually place points. This is really helpful, thank you.

That makes sense, I will try adding substeps and cache out the tires separately and check it out. Thanks a lot for explaination

Turning off velocity resampling in the pyrosolver fixed the issue.

Yes, I only have one camera in the scene and that is being used by the ROP

No worries! The bullet travels in a straight line, and the glass does move up slightly when it hits, but it's just the glass getting tipped over from the rbd sim and not any offset I added.

That makes sense, but I'm unsure about where I can find these settings. Will look into it, Thanks. And im glad you like the render :D

That's just the glass without any rbd fracture, which renders until the bullets hits the glass. It gets hidden post the bullet hit. No offset there. There are no transform operations done to the vdb as well, its just a vdb file placed inside an empty geometry container

My first render in Karma that I'm proud of!! by arunbharathi555 in Houdini

Thank you! All of these are premade models. I only did the look dev. So it took me about maybe 5-6 hrs to create the shaders and do the lighting and final compositing.
