When I open some scenes (ones with lots of OTL's I created), houdini spends about a minute updating exports. It's a bit annoying…

Is there any way to disable this and just manually update exports when you need to?


Thanks,

Not sure if that can help, but a quick workaround would be to start houdini with the flag -n to disable the Auto Update Mode

Oh, it's not when I open Houdini – it's when I open my .hip file. Also, it happens even when you're in manual mode.

How does Houdini decide when to check if an OTL's exports have changed? (other than when you're directly editing one?)
