Brutal Engine is built with a USD-first philosophy. The hdBrutal Hydra delegate allows the engine to function as a viewport renderer in any compatible application.

Supported Hosts

• Solaris (Houdini): Full support for LOPs, karma-like integration.
• Maya USD: Render directly from the Maya USD proxy.
• Omniverse: Compatible via the Hydra backend.

Capabilities

Supports all standard UsdPreviewSurface features and custom schema extensions for Brutal-specific materials.
