Hi, I'm trying to examine a hip file with hexpand, but when I run the command in cygwin, I get the following error.
Command:
“C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini 13.0.198.21\bin\hexpand” cusers/kevin/desktop/test.hip
Error:
—————-
hcpio: Command not found.
test.hip does not seem to be a hip file.
—————–
However, test.hip is a valid hip file - opens in Houdini just fine.
I'm running windows 7, Houdini 13.0.198
Any ideas?
Thanks

Make sure that the parent “bin” directory is in your PATH. If you started up “Command Line Tools” from Start Menu for Houdini, this is done automatically for you. If you're in Cygwin, then start it up, and do something like this:
cd “CProgram Files/Side Effects Software/Houdini 13.0.198.21”
source houdini_setup
cd “cusers/kevin/desktop”
hexpand test.hip
cd “CProgram Files/Side Effects Software/Houdini 13.0.198.21”
source houdini_setup
cd “cusers/kevin/desktop”
hexpand test.hip
