Hi guys,
I'm a new Houdini artist studying at Animal Logic Academy in Sydney.

At home I have 2 computers. I would like to do my hair grooming on computer A and then save the HDA for computer B to render.

How can I save a HDA to a shared location such that both computers can read the HDA?

I tried to do it and when I load the HDA onto computer B all the files are missing.

Is there a simple to follow guide on this kind of workflow?

Thank you.

Steve.

you can simply embed your HDA in your hip file，otherwise you will get those missing error

if your two computers are on the same network
you can make a directory to put shared assets etc
then save the HDA to that location
then add that directory to the HOUDINI_OTLSCAN_PATH
