Setting up the pointReference and normalReference aovs

V-Ray V-Ray for Houdini Solaris/USD

Hi,

How do we set this up in Solaris? Does it expect a primvar named “rest” or “__Pref/__Nref” on the rendered geo, or do you define a reference space in some other way?

Thanks,
Chris

So, you need to setup AOVs with source name sampler:normalReference and sampler:pointReference

I see thank you. Where is it getting the point and normal information for those aovs? Do I need to create usd primvar data on the geometry with a certain naming convention?

Currently, we are using standard Houdini names “rest” and “rnml”.

Perfect, thanks!
