the bend deformer uses it i believe

but i’ll post up an example

notice how with the deformation wrangle, i use `pos` instead of `@P` for all references to position. this is necessary for it to do it’s magic

you can use `@P` in deformation wrangles, but just know that the attribute update magic won’t work if you do it

Really getting a lot from this lengthy Vellum Cell Replication tutorial. The title a bit misleading since less than a third focuses on vellum. The majority is about preparing geometry as well as sharing useful Vexpressions and techniques. Would have paid for this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzj9Sr_x0Lk

Just got redshift working as a package with this code in a file called “Redshift.json” in “Documents\houdini17.5\packages”

“`{ “env”: [ { “HOUDINI_PATH”: [ “C:/ProgramData/Redshift/Plugins/Houdini/17.5.258” ] }, { “PATH”: [ “C:/ProgramData/Redshift/bin” ] } ] }“`

ByeBye Houdini.env …

for VR, not sure what there is to learn it’s just regular R but rendered twice! unless you mean UX guidelines, then these: learn.unity.com/tutorial/vr-best-practice developer.oculus.com/documentation/mobilesdk/1.0.3/concepts/mobile-ui-guidelines-intro/

when i was learning VEG i found the official forums pretty decent, looks like there is one for shader graph as well

forum.unity.com/threads/feedback-wanted-shader-graph.511960/

rope-learning, this is probably too basic for you but again official unity tutorials plus download and examine official unity assets

unity3d.com/pt/learn/tutorials/s/roll-ball-tutorial

they have helpfully scattered their assets across an asset store a package manager and github but here is some sample shaders to study

github.com/UnityTechnologies/ShaderGraph_ExampleLibrary

i would be wary of studying their high-profile demos like ADAM though they write bespoke just-for-demo systems that never ship plus those projects are kinda a mess to navigate (smells like trade show demo deadline stress)

more sample shaders: github.com/keijiro/ShaderGraphExamples

lastly, realtime vfx forum often posts WIP of effects made in shader graph… sometimes will post the graph itself as well

brackeys has some ok effects done in shader graph

another official talk, from gdc

but don’t see paid classes on shader graph yet (one on old text-based shaders tho)

hope that helps!
