Updated 7 April 2022: SideFX has released five more custom tools from Project Titan, including one to generate ivy procedurally across an underlying structure, and one to generate shrubs. More of the Project Titan tools will be released via the Tutorials section of SideFX’s website in future. The first to be made available publicly is the Cable Tool, which can be used to create twisting bundles of cables, as shown in the video above. SideFX has now begun releasing those custom tools, along with multi-part video tutorials explaining how they were created, with accompanying Houdini project files. The resulting Houdini Digital Assets can then be imported into and edited inside the game engine using SideFX’s Houdini Engine integration plugin for Unreal Engine 5.ĭownload the custom Houdini tools from Project Titan, beginning with the Cable Tool The tools generate procedural 3D assets like buildings, billboards, fences, cables and scaffolding that can be further dressed with procedural cloth or vegetation.
