Hi.

Is there anything to do when nested hda is not found?
unity shows an error like this.



The method I tried is

\ Users \ {user_name} \ Documents \ houdini17.5 \ otls
It was to move my hda.

But it didn't work.

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

You need to add a file called unity_houdini.env in the /Assets folder of your Unity project (see here [www.sidefx.com])

Then in that file, add this variable HOUDINI_OTLSCAN_PATH=Path/To/HDAswith the path to your nested HDA (preferably in a shared location with your colleagues)

Hope it helps!

hi Alex
thank you for the advice!
When I tried it immediately, it worked!

I've been worried about this problem for over half a month,
I am very happy. Thank you!

Hi Alex,

What about embedded hda's?

In my project I have a "main" hda with a couple of tools saved first as external hda and then added as embedded hda. Somehow Unity Engine keeps bumping the undefined nodes error as if they were still linked to their original locations.

Any clue?

Thanx
