Hi, I have been trying to install SideFX labs on my houdini indie and have not been able to get the tools to show up. I have houdini 18.0.532 and have updated the toolset. I get a success message saying all I need to do is restart houdini but when i do, the tools still dont appear. I have checked the files and they are all there and the json is pointing to the right place I just can figure out why my houdini wont pull up the tools. anybody have the same problem and can help?

Hi,

Did you get this issue fixed. I'm having the same problem with this version of Houdini.

Thanks, Dave

I'm having this issue as of the 18.5.462 update. Anyone solved this problem?

Edit: Ended up just hardcoding the path that the shelf tool installs the files to and it worked fine. Something is up with the auto installation process.

Same problem, even 18.5.483 not installing Labs.

Same, but didn't really look into it. Just noticed it didn't work.

bump 15.5.532

Any solution to this? I'm having the same issue. build 15.5.532

i figured out the the solution

Here is the code for redshift variables we installed to houdini.env

# ------- Redshift ----------
HOUDINI_DSO_ERROR = 2
PATH = "$PATH;C:/ProgramData/Redshift/bin;&"
HOUDINI_PATH = "C:/ProgramData/Redshift/Plugins/Houdini/18.0.597;&"

the solution is to add "$HOUDINI_PATH;" to the path "C:/ProgramData/Redshift/Plugins/Houdini/18.0.597;&"

# ------- Redshift ----------
HOUDINI_DSO_ERROR = 2
PATH = "$PATH;C:/ProgramData/Redshift/bin;&"
HOUDINI_PATH = "$HOUDINI_PATH;C:/ProgramData/Redshift/Plugins/Houdini/18.0.597;&"
