HDA: how to embed geo? {[SOLVED]} 2026年1月7日15:53

I just found the solution in a video. I posted the answer in the other thread. For me, it was easier to use the File Browser to get the good path.

EDIT: Oh, I see. My path was opdef:/Sop/Oli_Roof_Tilling?TempleTiles.bgeo but your is relative, If I understand.

Houdini embed external obj in HDA 2026年1月7日15:51

OOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I was missing some important infos. This video fixed that, thank your very, very much!

For anybody doing this, when you add the geo files (Type Properties -> Extra Files -> Add File), it acctually copies the file to a Houdini folder. (installion folders, maybe, not sure...)

When you want to replace the file path in your HDA to the new copied file I just talked about, you should do it from the File sop browser by clicking on the opdef:/ shortcut (on the left side). If your HDA was created at SOP level, browse inside the Sop folder. You should find a folder with the exact name of your HDA. That's where you'll find the file!

EDIT: My method gives me this:opdef:/Sop/Oli_Roof_Tilling?TempleTiles.bgeo but I was told to use opdef:..?TempleTiles.bgeo instead.

You can follow the tutorial EZiniT talked about here. Its in the section 8 (Create Capture Rig Digital Asset) at the 5 minute mark.
