Premade fracture and clustering in Houdini to Unreal March 13, 2026, 2:21 p.m.
Hi,
All those unreal_gc_* attributes are meant to be used with Houdini Engine.
The Houdini Engine plugin will be able to understand and use them.
If you export the data to FBX - those attributes will be ignored - as they are not FBX attributes - nor does the FBX importer knows how to understand/read them.
I'd recommend using Houdini Engine for this - we already have examples for Chaos/GC in the plugin's Content Examples:

Unreal to Houdini Material Override import error Oct. 28, 2025, 4:42 p.m.
Hi,
Thanks for bringing this up - I pushed a fix today for this, it will be in tomorrow's daily build of the plugin.

Where is the houdini engine crash log? Oct. 14, 2025, 10:32 a.m.
Hi,
Crash logs depend on who's crashing, Houdini or Unreal ?
For Houdini crash logs, they're generally in your appData/temp directory, see
https://www.sidefx.com/faq/question/445/ [www.sidefx.com]
If Unreal is crashing, then the crash logs will generally be in your project's Saved/Logs folder, or in the Saveds/Crash folder:
