This is a new series I've started explaining the basics of VEX for algorithmic design / procedural modeling which I'm using on daily basis.

In this 8th episode, I'm explaining what and how to use conditionals in VEX so that after this you'll be able to use VEX as your programming tool for practical usage.

00:00:00 Intro / What is conditional?
00:01:19 If-Else conditional
00:10:23 Single line If conditional
00:12:40 Ternary operator
00:16:38 Basic comparison operators
00:27:08 String match operator
00:41:05 Logical set
00:49:55 End process with return
00:53:37 End loop process with break
00:58:14 End loop iteration with continue
01:03:08 Exercise - conditional with attributes
01:09:13 Exercise - conditional with group
01:15:48 Exercise - conditional with array
01:25:20 Next topic - VEX functions

From the Houdini 18.5 HIVE (Originally broadcast October 29, 2020)

Luiz will explore how the new KineFX character tools in Houdini can be used in support of gamedev projects. He will talk about the motion editing and retargeting tools and how they can be used to refine your motion libraries.

Luiz Kruel is a Sr. Technical Artist formerly from SideFX. With a decade of production experience in games, he has worked on several of the largest franchises in the industry, including Halo, Call of Duty, Doom, Madden and Just Cause. He was part of the SideFX games team and was responsible for developing tools to bridge the gap between Houdini and Game Engines.
