H20 Houdini tool package search path not working ? Nov. 28, 2023, 8:22 a.m.
Hi Folks,
(Houdini 20.0.506, Unreal 5.2)
I'm trying to bundle some HDAs and other things in a custom unreal plugin. And I want to have an Houdini tool package in that plugin as well.
As seen in the documentation here:
https://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/unreal/houdinitools/settings.html [www.sidefx.com]
It seems that it's doable to have a search path set to /Plugins/YourStuff, but I can't make it works.
You can see in the 3 screenshots how I tried to set it up, but the assets doesn't show up in the HoudiniTools panels. If I have a package in the regular Content/HoudiniEngine/Tool folder, it works.
Any idea of how I could achieve this ?
Edit: I tried renaming the package file to "HoudiniToolsPackage", and it still doesn't work from a Plugins, it works from a folder in Content/ tho ...
Thanks !

.env files setting not working with relative path Nov. 9, 2023, 3:22 a.m.
Hi Folks !
I'm looking into Houdini Engine for unreal pipeline. And I need to set some variable using an .env file.
I populate the setting "Houdini Environment Files" and it's working fine if I put the full path: C:/bla/bla/Content/Houdini/file.env, but it doesn't if I set it like this /Game/Content/Houdini/file.env
Is that intended or I'm missing something ? Having such paths relative to project would be super helpful.
Cheers,
Guillaume
