I am currently using Houdini Apprentice 10.0.295 on a laptop running Windows Vista 32 bit. I am trying to work on some tutorials out of the 3D Buzz Python: Creating Tools in Houdini DVD.

Following the dvd's' instructions, I copied the wx folder from C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\wx-2.8-msw-ansi to C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini 10.0.295\houdini\scripts\python to install wxPython in Houdini's python.

I tried to run a little script I wrote from the shelf and got the following two error messages:

This application has failed to start because python26.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.

DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

My problem is I am running Python 2.6 on my laptop, so I installed wxPython for Python 2.6. However, the Python installed in Houdini is Python 2.5. Any solutions?
