[HOU1706] log warning object name

[psanitra]

Would it be possible to get also Houdini OBJ node name in the log instead of vrscene name?It`s hard to find out what object is causing the troubles, when it looks like this:

V-Ray: Invalid geometric normal (0 0 0) for "|ipr|93462|mesh|4C97F1CA"

thank you!

Hello psanitra , I've added your request as HOU-1706.

[chakarov]

According to devs for it's not possible IPR to print real obj nodes names.

[psanitra]

So what do you propose as alternative? Turning all nodes ON/OFF one by one? for sure sounds tempting, but i think i pass...

psanitra, is this message printed only in IPR? if it's printed in production as well the plugin name is much more informative there. I could add some hidden debug toggle as well to use production plugin names in IPR...
Btw, 93462 is node ID, you could try using Python "hou.nodeBySessionId(93462)" to get the node.

In both IPR and production render. These kind of "errors" happen, attributes with funky values in them etc, like my 0 normals, we do "stupid" unexpected stuff as users, just looking for a way how to backtrack where to fix without too much slowdown.
I will try python, thank you! In future it will be great if you can come up with something more "human readable"...
