Houdini is a 3D animation application software developed by SideFX Software.
Sketchfab currently supports static FBX files exported from Houdini.
We don't yet support Houdini animations because it uses a point cache technique. Our team is currently working with SideFX Software to support animation and make the upload process easier.
Go to File → Export → FBX and choose the options below:
You can now upload this FBX to Sketchfab or compress it into a ZIP/RAR/7z archive to reduce the file size.

Support for animation would be much appreciated!
@rayfoundry - Yep, we hope to support it in the future!
Hi @James,
Do you have any idea what is taking the SideFX folks so long to export animation in .fbx (without the point cache)?
It's been 3 years now and they still don't support this.. Their GLTF exporter also doesn't support animations.
I'm scratching my head to figure out how to export any usable animations out of Houdini for use in 3rd party tools..
Hey,
I'm afraid I haven't been in touch with the SideFX team about this in quite some time, but I'll reach out to my contacts.
Thanks @James - much appreciated.
