Hi,

New to houdini, but it seems this would be simple. How do I open a project using file>open? When I do this the project is grayed out. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Moin,

are you, maybe, using Houdini Indie? In that case you could not open (as far as I know) an Aprentice file (“hipnc” = “non commercial”, i.e. “Aprentice”). You'd need to convert the nc file to an Indie file (e.g. here: https://www.orbolt.com/upgrade-houdini-files [orbolt.com] )

I hope this helps!

Out of here. Being called a dick after having supported Houdini users for years is over my paygrade.
I will work for money, but NOT for "you have to provide people with free products" Indie-artists.
Good bye.
