Procedural Tool Development

June 2025

Houdini, Unreal Engine 5

This project showcases a fully procedural Wall Breaker Tool built in Houdini, designed to generate realistic brick-wall destruction with full artistic control. The tool creates custom hole shapes, natural break patterns, fragmented bricks, and detailed edge damage, all driven by node-based logic and VEX.

​

While the tool itself was not exported as a usable plugin for Unreal Engine due to licensing limitations.

I showcased the final destruction results inside Unreal to demonstrate how the outputs from the Houdini tool can be integrated into a real-time environment. The workflow highlights a production-oriented approach: generating procedural variations in Houdini and presenting the final meshes, shading, and lighting inside Unreal.

​

This project demonstrates skills in procedural modeling, HDA development, VEX scripting, Voronoi fracturing, destructible asset workflows, and delivering game-ready results from Houdini pipelines.
