Redshift for Houdini 20.5 July 26, 2024, 6:25 p.m.

You can download 'early release' plugins here, before they are included in the official Redshift 'production builds':
https://redshift.maxon.net/topic/31230/houdini-solaris-plugins-custom-builds [redshift.maxon.net]

On windows add these to:
C/ProgramData/Redshift/Plugins/Houdini/ and .../Solaris.
In the download there are plugins for both the 'Houdini' and 'Solaris' folders.

If you are using a more recent build than the plugin is designed for, it's likely it will still work.
At this time the latest Redshift early build plugin is for Houdini 20.5.278, but the latest Houdini build is 20.5.307.

Having copied them, simply rename the 'Houdini' and 'Solaris' plugin folders to the latest build numbers - eg rename "20.5.278" to "20.5.307" - or whatever build you are using.

Houdini will throw an error on launch warning you of the plugin mis-match, but for the most part you can ignore that and things will work as expected.

they're architecture engineers not UI designers, after all.

Exactly. I think they need one.
