LOD Hierarchy is a Houdini Digital Asset (HDA) that allows users to configure Level Of Detail Hierarchies to be used in other applications such as Unity, Unreal Engine, and other DCC's. The tool makes use of the newly implemented FBX Export abilities. The user gets control over a couple of parameters, which allows the user to get their desired result.

In this 2018 GDC talk, Phoenix Labs' Mykola Konyk and Michael Trottier present the procedural island pipeline they created in order to build the shattered islands of Dauntless.

I finished working at this asset. Now it works quite stable.
Works for any type roads intersection (T-type and Cross intersection), and stable results works for not more than 5 roads intersections.
Roads can be any width, and not just in one plane. In this examle roads has 2-6 lines. Asset also generates side roads, parkings, sidewalks with grass and borders, traffic lights with road signs, street lights, advertising boards.

Breakdown of the Houly Rock. Houly was a Houdini challenge in July 2020, where everyday you make something in Houdini.

Step by step in the video each node is the network will be shown. Starting with making the base shapes by scattering points and copy a platonic shape on it. Further noises or triplanar displacement is used to get the detail into the shapes.
A cool part in the video as well is how to procedural color them. The color is stored in the point/vertex and could be baked into a texture that you could use in other programs to finalize the material.

This Breakdown share similar appraoches like my previous rock tool https://youtu.be/L9YoExpA0Gw

Decimating a curve by curvature can be very useful to save on polygon count and also to reduce unnecessary points from your curve.

This Quickstart video will cover how to use Topo Transfer to project clean quad head geometry onto a dense and non-uniform scanned mesh geometry, to get a resulting clean geometry while capturing the features from the scan.

The Unity plugin now lets you connect to a session of Houdini Engine running inside Houdini. The state of Houdini Engine can be viewed in Houdini while working with the plugin in Unity. Changes you make on either end, whether in Unity via the plugin or in Houdini via its various interfaces, will be synchronized to allow both applications to make changes and see the same results.
