Python module for Houdini that allows users to export Houdini particles to Thinkbox PRT format.
This plugin supports Houdini 16.
See our releases page.
See BUILDING.md.
Ensure the plugin has either been built from source, or the pre-built binary has been downloaded.
On Windows and Linux, copy exportPRT.dll or exportPRT.so to
{Houdini Install Directory}/houdini/dso/.
On macOS, copy exportPRT.dylib to
{Your Home Directory}/Library/Preferences/houdini/{Your Version Of Houdini}/dso/
or to /Users/Shared/houdini/{Your Version of Houdini}/dso/.
Once the plugin has been installed, Houdini will have a new Python module called
Krakatoa.
Launch Houdini, and create a new scene with a particle system.
To perform an export, open Python inside Houdini and use the following commands (substitute your own node path and file path):
import Krakatoa
Krakatoa.exportParticles(hou.node('/obj/fireworks_particles/import_fireworks'),
'my_path/output_particles.prt')
