Introduction to Crowds in Houdini

The Crowd tools in Houdini is optimized very well. The 3D animated characters used in the Crowd system are known as Crowd Agents in Houdini. Houdini bakes the animations and a name is assigned to the animation for the corresponding agent. This makes it easy to attach several animations to one rigged character.
