Can a Houdini Core License run an Otis Muscle sim on a Farm. June 25, 2026, 12:29 p.m.

Yes, you can run an Otis sim on a Core license, you just aren't able to create Otis Solver nodes or modify their parameters in Core, but if you have an existing file with an Otis Solver in it, it should run fine in Core. So the issue should be something else. Please reach out to Support if you're still having an issue. (I'm assuming your Core/Engine licenses are for H21, as Otis didn't exist in prior versions).
