Particle System Editor - No OG Prim Node Option

Omniverse Apps USD Composer
1

I’m trying to follow this tutorial:
https://docs.omniverse.nvidia.com/extensions/latest/ext_particles/tutorial_create-point-instancer.html

I have downloaded the tutorial files and followed every instruction to the letter.

However, when I get to the point of adding the VFXShere01 mesh by dragging it into the particle editor, I do not get the option to select “OG Prim Node”.

I have four other options and have tried them all, but none of them result in the meshes instantiating on the points.

This is what yout tutorial shows:

These are the only options I have:

Any help to get past this point is greatly appreciated.

This is a reply to a past question.
I am having a similar problem and am having trouble.
Could you please tell me how you have dealt with it since then?

Hi, I never did manage to solve that problem. In the end I had to create the particles in Blender and export them as animated meshes to use them in USD Composer.
As far as I can tell, the particle system in USD Composer is being rewritten, I am guessing that is why it is not fully functional yet.
Sorry I can’t be any more help than this.

Thanks for the reply.
I understand that particle system has some features in the development stage.
Thank you very much.
