how soon can we expect a plugin for 4.23?
can i build my own binaries from source?
i would do that, but it just takes so damn long.
i would rather you guys do it.

Hi,

Source code for the 4.23 plugin is available on Github:
https://github.com/sideeffects/HoudiniEngineForUnreal/tree/Houdini17.5-Unreal4.23 [github.com]

Today's daily build (17.5.370) has the 4.23 plugin binaries as well.

And for those of you that are feeling a little bit experimental, the 4.24 plugin (main UE4 branch) is available on Github as well:
https://github.com/sideeffects/HoudiniEngineForUnreal/tree/Houdini17.5-UnrealMAIN [github.com]

latest daily

build 370

When I try build it i get this errors.

thank you.
installing 370 now.

so. i'm using the launcher to download stuff but the plugin was not in there.
click the gear and go to modify then add the plugins you want.
just in case anyone goes through the same thing.

I have problem with launcher loggin

Hi,

Sorry about that, the installer hasn't been properly updated in 17.5.370 and was not installing the 4.23 plugin.
The installer has been properly updated the next day, and the 4.23 plugin is part of the current dailies.

As for those build errors, those were what you get when building the 4.22 plugin with 4.23.
You shouldn't get them if you get the proper sources to build with 4.23.
(as posted earlier https://github.com/sideeffects/HoudiniEngineForUnreal/tree/Houdini17.5-Unreal4.23 [github.com] )

The github is automatically updated, but with a 24h delay, so you may just have downloaded the sources too early, without the fixes.

For that launcher login error, you should contact support about that / submit a bug.
