RESOLVED: Select sop cant reference GPU direct sop node. b|35260

Select sop cant reference GPU direct sop node. b|35260
Using wiring for now.

You can not use SOPs again after using GPU Direct. This is a limitation of GPU Direct since once its up on the GPU it has left the SOPs realm.

so how would you reference to it in a project without wiring ?

i have made custom cpp that reads mesh directly to gpu how would you reference to it
in your project ?

If you use GPU Direct the geometry is sent (directly) to the GPU and can no longer by used by any other SOPs. You just can render it directly or put it in a Geo COMP and render it.

If you want to use your geometry in SOP and filter or modify it, you can’t use GPU Direct, SOPs are all on the CPU.

I just want to be able to reference to it
from diffrent geo somewhere in my project.

ptobably adding “select” sop option in the
geo container it self can help.
