Hi,

A couple of pointers:

City Set is using point instancers. Support for those is coming in the next release.

If you load the “walk” or “keep alive” version of the Human Female, when you go into the details of the USDStage Actor, you will see a level sequence. It will be setup to match the start time and end time of the stage. You can play or scrub the level sequence to change the USD time code and see the animation playing.

We don’t currently ship binaries of the USD SDK for Mac and Linux. This is something that we are looking at. Linux support has been commited to our dev-virtualproduction branch on GitHub, see commit 30ec98a045677ed48b83186b53e612a1059683dc and 7f4baa1fb96afd950bb753993723f0f3b2dc75b2.

We currently support diffuseColor, metallic, roughness and opacity as inputs for the preview surface. We also load displayColors as vertex colors and assign a vertex color material if a USD Shade Material isn’t available.

We’re still actively working on our USD integration. Thanks for your interest!

What about Hydra render delegates support. That would be very awesome
