Hello,
I made recipes on two different computers, I transferred them both to one computer(hip files from "otls" folder which contains them) with changed names and now I have 2 recipe files, is there any option to merge them into one recipe file?

Thanks,
Dawid

Recipes?

If you're talking about node networks, try this. Open HIP #1. Select all the nodes and copy them to the clipboard. Open up HIP #2 and paste them in.

Houdini's clipboard is robust and remembers pastes between sessions, even weeks apart. It also remembers pastes for individual contexts.

Nah, in my question I mean a hip file that contains all saved recipes(new preset system in houdini 20.5)

What if I have several such files from different computers, is there any option to merge them into one file?

In the Asset Manager, right-click the file you want to merge and select Merge with Library..., then select the file you want to merge it into.
