簡介:

Houdini 11關注的一個焦點就是使您每天的工作更加富有成效。這意味著我們的改進目標著力於更少的點擊次數以更快速度工作。在Houdini 11中，新的基於Voronoi算法的分形工具，使模擬前和模擬時打碎物體都更加容易。
Side Effects Software的旗艦級產品，是創建高級視覺效果的終極工具，因為它的橫跨公司的整個產品線的能力，Houdini Master為那些想讓電腦動畫更加精彩的藝術家們空前的能力和工作效率。
Houdini 是一個特效方面非常強大的軟件。許多電影特效都是由它完成:指環王中“甘道夫”放的那些“魔法禮花”還有“水馬”沖垮“戒靈”的場面......後天中的龍卷風......等等，a52的汽車廣告.反正只要是涉及DD公司制作的好萊塢一線大片，幾乎都會有Houdini參與和應用.

Productivity is Key
A key focus of Houdini 11 is making you more productive in your day-to-day work. This means targeting our development efforts on ways for you to work faster with fewer clicks. In Houdini 11, new Voronoi-Based Fracturing tools will make it easier to break up objects either before a simulation or automatically during a simulation. Destruction sequences are a staple of Houdini-based VFX shots and now they will be easier to create and even more controllable.

Our Particle Fluids are now up to 70 Times Faster with the new FLIP (Fluid Implicit Particle) solver as compared to Houdini 10’s SPH solver, making it ideal for generating multiple iterations. In addition, this new solver is seamlessly integrated with existing particle operations [POPs] making the results highly directable. New buoyancy controls make it easier to float rigid objects and you can even smash up an object by combining these fluid tools with the new fracturing tools.
Mantra Rendering Workflow
Mantra has traditionally been used to render out VFX elements but more and more Houdini customers are using Mantra for prototyping shots or rendering all the CG elements in final plates. Noticing this trend, we have put a lot of time into creating a new shading workflow which starts with a new “Uber” Surface Model node with built-in per-light exports, physically-accurate sub-surface scattering and energy conservation. Add to that user-interface improvements to Houdini’s shader building environment such as a Shader FX menu for quickly texturing materials and you will see how professional results can be achieved faster than ever before.

Hardware Rendering has also been enhanced with high quality OpenGL shading of lights and shadows as well as GPU-assisted volumes, unlimited lights and support for diffuse, specular, opacity, environment, bump and normal maps. Houdini’s Flipbook tools now support all these FX and can capture high dynamic range beauty passes.
In addition, we have improved the lighting interface for Houdini 11. We have new light types such as Global Illumination, Portal, Sky, Indirect and Geometry. The Geometry Lights let you turn any 3D object into a light emitting surface then use a surface shader to control the light emission. The geometry can also be animating or deforming for even cooler results.

Performance, Performance, Performance
We have heard your requests for improved performance loud and clear and with Houdini 11 we are introducing much faster particle fluids, faster rendering and targeted optimizations such as extensive multi-threading for dynamics and algorithmic enhancements for Houdini in general. An example of this optimization is the attribute transfer node which is now an order of magnitude faster when transferring vertex attributes such as UVs.
While we have made many performance improvements in Houdini 11, we also have a team of developers working on even deeper optimizations for the future. These improvements will modernize Houdini and let you work with bigger files, faster, with more efficient use of memory. These big performance changes will be a significant addition to the subsequent release.

蘋果版Houdini破解方法：
1）忽略CRACK文件裡的破解說明；
2）卸載以前的版本，再把sesi文件夾刪除，如果沒有就算了。路徑在/Library/Preferences/sesi，然後安裝程序，安裝結束後，一定不要啟動程序；
3）找到這個路徑/Library/Frameworks/Houdini.framework/Versions/11.0.446.9/Resources/houdini/sbin，把sesinetd文件刪除，會要求你輸入密碼，輸入即可。然後把CRACK裡的sesinetd文件拖進上面相同的路徑下，系統提示不能完成，要求“鑒定”，輸入密碼即可；
4）打開“終端.app”程序（位於“應用程序”裡的“實用工具”文件夾下），輸入：
sudo chmod +w /Library/Frameworks/Houdini.framework/Versions/11.0.446.9/Resources/houdini/sbin/sesinetd（你不需要把路徑打進去，在輸入完+w和一個空格後，直接把剛才拷貝到sbin文件夾裡的sesinetd拖拽到終端窗口上，路徑就自動出來了），回車之後，輸入密碼。再輸入：sudo chmod +r /Library/Frameworks/Houdini.framework/Versions/11.0.446.9/Resources/houdini/sbin/sesinetd
以及
sudo chmod +x /Library/Frameworks/Houdini.framework/Versions/11.0.446.9/Resources/houdini/sbin/sesinetd
後兩次命令執行不需要再輸入密碼。
這一步是在賦予權限，chmod +w意思是使文件可寫，chmod +r是使文件可讀，chmod +x是使文件可執行。
如下圖：

5）重啟，非常重要。重啟後，清空廢紙簍；
6）打開License Administrator.app（位於安裝後Houdini文件夾中Administrative Tools文件夾裡），再打開CRACK文件夾裡的houdini11keygen.exe（你需要使用一下虛擬機，或者找台PC機，或者其他什麼方法。我用的是虛擬機）。
把License Administrator裡Server Information標簽下的License server host和License server code分別輸入到houdini11keygen.exe的server name和server code中，來生成keys，然後在License Administrator裡選擇File-Manually Enter Keys，如下圖：

把生成的keys輸入進去，一次只能填5個，然後按Accept，就回得到下面這樣：

然後就可以啟動Houdini啦～～Houdini破解確實我弄過的最繁瑣的一個...
