I got task to send milion particles from Houdini to Maya. The unfortunate part is we can't just load like regular Alembic. We will use different method using Maya Bifrost to load this ABC file.
1 . Simple particles setup
2. Load ABC and read attributes using Bifrost graph in Maya.
3. Render as points inside Arnold for Maya.
