HModeling Tools — free Edit Poly and UV Editor tools for Houdini

Hello everyone!

I’m developing HModeling Tools, a set of interactive modeling tools for Houdini.

Edit Poly brings common polygon modeling operations into a single SOP node, with viewport tools, selection shortcuts, operation previews, and editable history.

UV Editor provides a dedicated UV workspace with selection synchronized between the UV editor and Houdini’s 3D viewport.

Both tools are free to download and use. Each node includes built-in offline documentation in English and Russian.

Currently available for Windows, with separate DLLs for Houdini 22.0.368 and 22.0.429. Please use the DLL matching your Houdini build.

To install, place SOP_HModelingTools.dll in the dso folder inside your Houdini user preferences directory, then restart Houdini.

The tools are still in active development, and this is an early release. Some features are still being refined, and workflows may change as development continues. Feedback, suggestions, and bug reports are very welcome and will help shape future updates!
