It seems that the Metahuman Plugin for Houdini 21 is only available for Windows. Does anybody know if it's possible to install it on MacOS? Aren't plugins for Houdini generally OS independent because of Python?

I’ve tried to install it on macOS, but it contains prebuilt binaries (.dll and .so), which don’t work on macOS.

It‘s a pitty that it is not available for MacOS. That was never mentioned in the presentations. I‘m now thinking about animating them in UE.

I guess we just need to wait until Epic adds support for macOS. A couple of months ago, there were no animation HDAs for MH and no Linux support. MetaHuman with Houdini is pretty avant-garde imho
