Hi all !

I have a problem running houdni engine for unreal. My environment is this :

Houdini Indie 18.0.460 - I have a valid houdini indie license
Unreal 4.25.1

Booth programs freshly installed with the latest builds.

Inside unreal I can see the houdni engine loaded , I can load any .HDA but I having this error msg all the time :
“Houdini installation was not detected. Failed to locate or load libHAPIL.dll. No cooking/instantiation will take place”

The .HDA content cannot be run. Could someone help me please ?

Cheers
Karoly

Hi,

Judging from the settings screen, it seems that the plugin is correctly setup.
Where you forced to add the custom path?
or did the plugin find the Houdini install by itself properly and you just set the manual path to try and fix things?

The issue seems to be with the license and not the plugin, as the plugin seems to indicate that it's failing to acquire a proper license.
What does your license administrator show?

Hi dpernuit

It seems the problem has solved itself , I had to run a Houdini engine debugger and after that I have the license ! Sorry for the late reply !

Cheers
