set instance geometry and bifrostgeotomaya

[Anonymous]

is there a way to connect a set instance geometry nodes output to a bifrostgeotomaya node? i wish to render particle instances in redshift

hello,

I downloaded your "bifrost_to_nparticle.zip" and ran it in Maya2023.

the connection to the nParticels seems to be broken.

Any clue how to fix this?

Thank you so much

Sorry in this moment my laptop is broken. 
I let you know soon

Hi, maybe you didn't install the arrayMapperCustom plugin.

let me know

you should be able to plug a baked_instanced_geometry node after the create_instances in your graph and then use the baked_instanced_geometry mesh output to connect to the bifrostGeoToMaya node but these will no longer be instances it will just be a mesh.

I have tried to update the arrayMapper, but it is not very performing.

I tried to change method to transfer attributes from bifrost to Mash or instancer. I think mash is better for the cache.
