Not covered:
Crowds: Simulating large crowds of characters.
Terrain (Landscape generation): Generating landscapes and terrains.
Hair/Fur/Feathers: Simulation and rendering of hair, fur, and feathers.
COPs (2D Compositing): Houdini’s Composite Operators for 2D compositing.
CHOPs (Wave modification, like Audio): Channel Operators for modifying waveforms, often used for audio.
Rigging (KineFX): Rigging characters and objects using Houdini’s KineFX.
Animation tools – complex shading/rendering: Advanced animation tools, complex shading, and rendering features.
The course focuses on fundamental aspects and common workflows of an FX TD, excluding more specialized topics to avoid overwhelming both the learners and the instructor. The note mentions that since it’s a “living” course, the list of covered and not covered topics might change over time.
