Houdini - ShotGrid - Exporting USDs

We don't have a great USD pipeline at school, but we do have a couple integrations that are useful when working with Solaris. One of these tools is the SGTK USD ROP. You can find it in the TAB menu when you're working on your Stage.

The node has a couple settings and a Save to Disk button:

It's essentially just an easy way of sharing youthe USD you've built with Solaris, as it wraps the regular USD ROP, taking care of file paths automatically. It's a decent all-round tool for publishing layouts, assets, etc. It's just not very configurable. 

Once you've saved your files to disk you can publish them like normal in the Publish menu.
