Arnold for Houdini 17. Anyone got it to work?

I downloaded HtoA 3.2.0 from
https://docs.arnoldrenderer.com/display/A5AFHUG/HtoA+3.2.0 [docs.arnoldrenderer.com]

Installed also license server from here:
https://docs.arnoldrenderer.com/display/A5AILIC/Installing+RLM+on+Windows [docs.arnoldrenderer.com]

houdini env file was automatically edited by plugin installation. But i cant get it to work.
In houdini there is no arnold shelf and cant add it as there is no such shelf.

Got it solved. HAd to change env file

The Redshift settings are overriding the Arnold settings.

You need to combine the two PATH lines into one line, and the HOUDINI_PATH lines. Like this:

PATH = “$PATH;CUsers/ISUther/Documents/Arnold_renderer/htoa-3.2.0_r9e1313b_houdini-${HOUDINI_VERSION}/scripts/bin;CProgramData/Redshift/bin”
HOUDINI_PATH = “CUsers/ISUther/Documents/Arnold_renderer/htoa-3.2.0_r9e1313b_houdini-${HOUDINI_VERSION};CProgramData/Redshift/Plugins/Houdini/17.0.352;&”

Got this info from arnold forum
