Hello !
I'm looking forward to exectue a command that would open a .hip file (through python or CMD), to an existing Houdini.exe instance. Is that something possible ?
Thank you in advance

Hi, you can use the hip file module there is a load [www.sidefx.com] function.
>>> path = "C:/Users/*username/Desktop/xxx.hiplc" >>> hou.hipFile.load(path)
