USD : kind and purpose
Thanks Sebastian "spiff" Grassia for sharing the kind file from Pixar)
Remedy usage is minimal at the moment. They want to expand the filtering usage. Purpose is not very important because they don't use hydra.
Alab is really using purposes. We need to find a way to make the Pixar example legal.
Is it simple to create a new kind?
We can check Sebastian "spiff" Grassia example.
we need to put info in the plug in info file. It is pretty simple.
Layer vs SubLayer
At Infinity War, USD is used for prototype. THe real usage is more referencing.
At SantaMonica studio, they try to figure out the USD usage, how to build scene. There will be huge transition from Maya.
At Remedy, At the begining, it was only referencing. For Geom/anim, sublayers could be a good usage.
Sublayering, source control can bring difficulties.
At Santa Monica Studio, There could be one file world file and have references from other world. They want to have layers by department. It could be nice to have overrides for Variant Sets.
Pixar : you can do more damages using sublayers. Pixar is working on namespace Edits. There could be orphrans if it is not done correctly.
THey are working on a project to avoid this:
- interaction with Source Control
- pipeline control for Orphans
- Sublayering gives the ability to work on the same subject. It was requested by a lot of people.
Is there a lot of latency?
One of the challenge of the namespace Edit is that it checks a lot of things.
