[PROJECT FILES & TIMECODES BELOW]
For Tech Artists who want to learn how to build procedural pipelines. Learn how to make user friendly tool-sets for professional pipelines. I will focus on a method to set up a user friendly UI for a cache based path editor. This tool can draw paths on a terrain using a simple handle controller, a pathfinder and a hand full of buttons. And it allows artists in both Unreal and the Houdini Engine to quickly set up and edit a path or road network in just a matter of minutes.

Plus as a bonus, I'll demonstrate an interactive object drag and drop tool using pystates from my work in progress Houdini Masterclass, to give you some ideas on the power of creating your own custom viewer states

Erwin Heyms is a Houdini Technical artist at Ubisoft Montpellier in France. He has been responsible for the procedural toolsets on various AAA games such as Ghost Recon Wildlands and Breakpoint. Next to this he is also a Houdini Teacher and mentor and has developed several courses over the course of his career. His largest masterclass on "Procedural Asset Production" currently under development.
