I have an Object level HDA and have added a geometry file using the extra files section of the type properties window and I want to read that with a file node inside a geometry object...
If I put in the file string :
opdef:.?blocker_v1.bgeo.sc
I get - Error Unable to read file "opdef:/Sop/file?blocker_v1.bgeo.sc". - but it's not a SOP hda, so I tried
opdef:..?blocker_v1.bgeo.sc
which gives me - Error Unable to read file "opdef:/Object/geo?blocker_v1.bgeo.sc".
According to the docs I can use this syntax : opdef:/category/asset_name?name but I can't get that to work either. The listing in the asset manager is lm::Object/blocker_rig::1.0 so I'm using
opdef:/Object/blocker_rig?blocker_v1.bgeo.sc
but that doesn't work either. I'm sure I'm missing something simple, can anyone help?
how to refer to embedded geo in an OBJ level hda

if your file sop is not under the HDA or the HDA doesn't even have to be instantiated in the scene you indeed mayy need to point to the correct type
try using
opdef:lm::Object/blocker_rig::1.0?blocker_v1.bgeo.sc
opdef:/lm::Object/blocker_rig::1.0?blocker_v1.bgeo.sc
it's important to use all namespaces of the type as different versions or same asset name or in different namespace can have completely different extra files sections
