Hi,

Do you have access to Houdini 16? If, so, docs for the UE4 plug-in can be found on the Documentation page..
If not, the 16.0 docs we'll be available to everyone in a few weeks.

Meanwhile, feel free to ask us questions here on the forum..

Hey, it looks like I have Houdini 15.5 after purchasing Houdini Indie. I'm guessing Houdini 16 isn't exactly available yet, but will be soon. Is there any time frame?

Is there any documentation for working with Houdini Assets in Unreal?

I'm finding it hard to get information on targeting Unreal Materials with unreal_face_material and a few other things that people seem to already have some understanding of.

What's the process for assigning a UE4 material to an HDA? I've tried creating a primitive attribute called “unreal_face_material” and have it assigned to the names of my UE4 materials as shown in the editor. I do get the multiple material groups on my static mesh, but they are always set to the default material.

How exactly did you go about doing this? I put down an attribute rename in my geometry node but I dont know what to put in the FROM section to target the material name I want to switch for Unreal Cooking….
