Hi Folks,

(Houdini 20.0.506, Unreal 5.2)
I'm trying to bundle some HDAs and other things in a custom unreal plugin. And I want to have an Houdini tool package in that plugin as well.
As seen in the documentation here:

https://www.sidefx.com/docs/houdini/unreal/houdinitools/settings.html [www.sidefx.com]

It seems that it's doable to have a search path set to /Plugins/YourStuff, but I can't make it works.

You can see in the 3 screenshots how I tried to set it up, but the assets doesn't show up in the HoudiniTools panels. If I have a package in the regular Content/HoudiniEngine/Tool folder, it works.

Any idea of how I could achieve this ?

Edit: I tried renaming the package file to "HoudiniToolsPackage", and it still doesn't work from a Plugins, it works from a folder in Content/ tho ...

Thanks !

Got it working You have to remove the /Plugins/ and the /Content/ part of the path. (only for plugin based path apparently ).
