Do I have to use VS2015 to build the USD Houdini plugin?

Hello there,

I used VS2017 to build the USD houdini plugin and the build itself was successful. But after I set the Houdini environmental variables and launch Houdini 16.5, I got the incompatible compiler versions error and then Houdini crashed. I did some searches and it seemed that Houdini 16.5 is built using VS2015, so do I have to use the same version of Visual Studio to build the USD Houdini plugin? Or is it another issue?

Thanks for any comments and ideas.

Yes. Use VS2015 for Houdini 16.5. Use VS2017 for Houdini 17.

Thank you BRog. Yeah I rebuilt the plugin with VS2015 and now it's loaded in Houdini 16.5.
