I'm not entirely sure why this would be the case. When you override Houdini install path, does it show up in the heu_settings.ini file in the main project folder?

Hi, this should work. Can you provide the HDAs that you are using for reference?

Hi, this problem looks a bit more involved. I recommend submitting a bug report: https://www.sidefx.com/forum/topic/38188/ [www.sidefx.com] Also, is it specific to the Unity plugin? The screenshots you provided only show Houdini.

The settings that you enter in the plugin settings should be saved in heu_settings.ini in the main project directory. Make sure that this file exists. The settings should be saved for your next launch, so you shouldn't have to set it again. If you think that there is a bug somewhere, then please submit a bug report with reproduction steps: https://www.sidefx.com/forum/topic/38188/ [www.sidefx.com]

Hi, the pictures on your post are broken, but in order to enable the editable nodes UI, you have to check the option in Asset Options > Enable Editable Node Tools.

Here is an example of an HDA using the attribute paint node.

Hi, indeed this was looked at, and we added partial support for it in Houdini 18.5.483. To my knowledge, we don't have full control over what happens when Unity duplicates an object, so I wouldn't consider it an "officially supported" yet. Use the "Duplicate" button for a foolproof duplication method.

However, if you can find a bug with copy/pasting HDAs, please submit a bug report with an example HDA in https://www.sidefx.com/forum/topic/38188/ [www.sidefx.com] .

Hi DaphneEl. I'm not aware of any way to "Convert Unity C# to Houdini VEX". They are pretty different languages for very different purposes. Can I ask what in particular you are trying to do?

Hi there!

Here's the feedback I got regarding UX RFEs:
- Display curve coordinates as a list of Vector3 (Which converts it into the string if modified)
- Ability to edit the point attributes per CV (or at least rot/scale)
- Ability to frame curve points (instead of the entire curve) with F

If you have any additional requests, please submit an RFE through the bug database: https://www.sidefx.com/forum/topic/38188/ [www.sidefx.com]

Hi, the save/load HDA preset option specifically saves/loads the preset PARAMETERS. (i.e. parameters made from Houdini). I do think it's a bit misleading and it would be useful to save/load asset options as well. I added it as an RFE in our database.

Hi, we forgot to add the #if UNITY_EDITOR tag on an AssetDatabase call. Sorry about that! You can wrap #if UNITY_EDITOR around the AssetDatabase call to fix the issue. Also, this should have been fixed in the builds in 18.5.493.

Hi, I don't think that there's anything "Out of the box" currently, but it certainly is possible to generate procedural levels with the power of HDAs in Unity. I recommend checking out this: https://www.sidefx.com/tutorials/unity-starter-kit/ [www.sidefx.com] .

If you think you have a cool idea that might benefit a lot of people, you can also describe it in detail in an RFE https://www.sidefx.com/forum/topic/38188/ [www.sidefx.com] and I can take a look at it.

Houdini Engine for Unity » no environment mapped paths found! macOS

Hi! A few things:
- Unless your HDA explicitly uses a custom environment path, no additional mapped environment paths should be necessary for loading a basic HDA. You can send the HDA if you want me to check if this is the case. Also, sending the error log would be nice as well.
- Make sure that Assets/plugin/unity_houdini.env file exists. It is relative to your project folder.
- All environment paths must be prefixed by "HEU_ENVPATH_", e.g. HEU_ENVPATH_COMMON_HDAS=C:\Dev\Houdini\CommonAssets . See: https://www.sidefx.com/docs/unity/_environment.html [www.sidefx.com]

Appending to my earlier answer, A part should only have HDA data as its parent if:
- The parent is the asset root
- The object is instanced but not visible.
- It is a curve

Maybe make sure your instances are visible?

ThomasSpaceflower is correct. If you assign your geometry into different groups, it should be split according to the groups. This is deprecated, meaning that it works for very simple geometry, but it has been known to sometimes produce duplicate geometry.

Hi, I've actually never heard of this happening before. Can you submit a bug report with the HDA/project in question? Also, it looks like the outputs are being generated in the HDA_Data gameObject. That doesn't look normal.
