I'm trying to setup Houdini Engine for Unity on macOS (Monterey) and I have some troubles with installation paths. I'm using Steam version of Houdini Indie and everything installed well, but it looks like Houdini Plugin can't see any of installed libraries.

At first, I was trying to setup installation path through environment variables, but it looks like plugin is trying to use predefined path anyway (HEU_HoudiniVersion.HOUDINI_INSTALL_PATH). So I've changed it by replacing default user name with my actual user name, but plugin can't find libraries anyway.

I'm also trying to check source code of plugin, but there are a lot of preprocessor directives here and it seems like solution could be not so obvious.

Anyone can help? I'm totally stucked and have no idea where to find any answer.

So there is problem with loading Houdini libraries through Silicon version of Unity. I've installed Intel version of Unity and looks like problem is gone. Silicon version of Houdini is currently in preview and has no Houdini Plugin support.

I tried with a Intel version Unity editor but it doesn't work as well. Could you tell me your houdini version and unity editor version? Thanks.
