Exporting GPU Particles out of Ember

Chiming in since I’m having a lot of issues getting usable particles into Houdini.
Summarizing the above, it seems like the current issues are:

  • inconsistent id values
  • no usable age attribute
  • no animated color attribute
  • nan positions

I haven’t come across the last 2, but the first 2 issues basically make particle exports unusable for any use case I can think of.

Someone mentioned a list of known issues. Where can I find that?
How do we track the progress of these issues?

The issue is on our GitHub where we keep track of all software issues. There aren’t any publicly facing updates but we will certainly notify everyone when we have progress. And tbh, after we test internally we may reach out to you and @Andrej730 with the specific build so that we can be sure it works for your use cases as well. But hard to tell when that will be, having to code alembic exports from scratch isn’t super easy and there isn’t a lot of documentation on the matter.
