I did the following
1. Compile my .sl file
2. Use slo2otl.py
3. Install the otl from file-install digital asset libraries

But didnt work, when I hit the tab menu under the shop network my shader its missing any idea why?

Hi,

Old shader model vs new shader model conflict? Try enabling the old shaders in Houdini, maybe then it will work. I recall several posts over the recent weeks explaining how to do it.

Cheers,

I believe that this is because Houdini is Mantra centric by default. You need to go to Edit > Preferences > Rendering to reveal other renderers or focus completely on one of them.
