In this Houdini tutorial we are going to learn how to do custom Pyro FX in Houdini. Software required: Houdini 12.5.

In this Houdini tutorial we are going to learn how to do custom Pyro FX in Houdini. We will use the combustion model of the Pyro Solver and set up custom attributes to source fire and smoke simulations. We will get a good understanding of various shape tabs in the Pyro Solver and end the tutorial by putting everything we learned previously into a small practical example. Software required: Houdini 12.5.

Primarily based on Houdini 12.5. This version is in the 'mature support' stage, which means that Side Effects is strictly limiting its addition of new features to the software. Versions 16.5 and 17.0 will be in 'extended support' after 12th, with the latest version being 18.5. The software is updated annually, suggesting that it may soon be outdated
