Houdini Engine 21.0 Not Instancing in UE5.6 Nov. 6, 2025, 6:28 p.m.
I'm trying to figure out the Houdini Engine(8.0.3) interface to get instancing working for UE5.6.1.
The geometry included with HDA instances just fine.
However, I try to change the instance object to a UE5 object and nothing seems to work.
I even tried adding a point attribute(unreal_instance) but that doesn't change anything.
Any suggestions what might be going on?

Mac Houdini Python Users June 8, 2023, 10:44 a.m.
Greetings Mac Houdini Users!
I have a strange request.
I am writing a book on Houdini Python and I need a couple of mac command line prompts. I don't have access to a Mac nor Mac Houdini so I am reaching out to you, stalwart users!
The first prompt I need is the output you get when running vanilla Python out of a fresh, command-line, terminal.
For example, when I execute Python from a windows shell I would get something like:
I need what this looks like on a Mac.
The next thing I need is what the installed version of Houdini Python looks like when executed from a Mac terminal.
(I am not looking for the hython execution, I need Houdini Python
)
For example, when I execute Houdini installed Python from a windows shell, I get something like:
I need what this looks like on a Mac.
If you can provide me with these prompts I am more than happy to provide you with credit in the book!
Thank you very much for your help!
