I'm running Windows 7, Houdini 16 and UE4.15

Unreal Engine is located at C:\Program Files\Unreal Engine\4.15\

When I attempt to install Houdini 16, I confirm that I want to install Houdini Engine for UE as well.
I don't receive any warning, the installation seems to go well but eventually no Houdini plugin gets installed.

What should I do?

Thanks

Hi,

It's possible that the installer didn't get your UE4 installation folder properly.. or has copied the plug-in files in a wrong folder.

You can install the plug-in manually by going to your Houdini 16 installation folder, and copy the HoudiniEngine folder in

C:\Program Files\Side Effects Software\Houdini16.0.XXX\engine\unreal\4.15

to

C:\Program Files\Unreal Engine\4.15\Engine\Plugins\Runtime\

The plug-in should then be detected when you launch UE4.

Hello,
thanks for the advice!

Cheers

I don't bother with installing the plugin, instead I include it as part of my UE4 project and use the latest version from Github (hacking a few files to correct the location and version of my Houdini installation).
