Hello,

I am having the same issue as: https://www.sidefx.com/forum/topic/53282/ [www.sidefx.com] - where I have an error as I try to update the game dev tool shelf, so I manually installed it.
But the Simple Baker now don't work.
It gives me this error on a simple box bake (which works on my Houdini at work, but not at home, even tho I copied/pasted the GameDevTools themselves to be sure I use the same…)

Thank you.
