Hello,
today I installed the latest version of Houdini (19.0.561).
For the project I'm working I need to rebuild Unreal.
I followed the instruction but GenerateProjectFiles showed me it can't find Houdini 19.0.560.
So I modified the version in HoudiniEngine.Build.cs.
I changed the string HoudiniVersion from 19.0.560 to 19.0.561.
Now I can move on with the build of Unreal.

Question is : is it ok ?
I mean are there any incompatibility or will I face unforeseen behavior as I have Houdini 19.0.561 and presumably the plugin for 19.0.560.

NB: my own account does not have a license, but I installed it with the Indie license a colleague bought on behalf of the company.

Hi,

This is fine, as the Houdini Version doesn't matter as much as the HAPI version.

The Houdini version is mostly used just to find the Houdini install directory via the registry, whereas the HAPI version actually indicates API compatibility.

Since HAPI is not updated as often as H, if the build are too far apart, this should most of the time be fine.
We also try to maintain compatibility as much as we can, and the plugin will warn you if the HAPI version is not compatible.
