Hey everyone!
Just wondering if there is any chance to see new plugin for new Houdini 18.
Plugin for 17.5 doesn't work...as expected
Thx.

Thx man !

Unfortunately i can't install it ( tried different versions)...keep getting this error

"Couldn't find 'SI_ColorEditor.ui' for reading. Looked in:
C:/Otoy/Octane_2019.1.5.0_Houdini_18.0.287_Win64/config/Applications$/config/Applications"

Found the same issues on the forum but somehow mentioned soludtions didn't work out for me...

It's probably has smth, to do with env. variables but...dunno what exactly is missing.
Any tips are greatly appreciated ! Thx!)

Hi,

This is a mistake in the houdini.env file HOUDINI_PATH variable for sure, probably related to a wrong quotes character or something like that. If you want to attach your file here, I could take a look at it.

Thanks,

Hi , thx for the reply !
Here is my houdini.env :

Code: Select all

#
# Houdini Environment Settings
#
# The contents of this file are read into the environment
# at startup.  They will override any existing entries in
# the environment.
#
# The syntax is one entry per line as follows:
#    VAR = VALUE
#
# Values may be quoted
#    VAR = "VALUE"
#
# Values may be empty
#    VAR =
#

# Example:
#
# HOUDINI_NO_SPLASH = 1

HOUDINI_DSO_ERROR = 2
PATH = "C:\Otoy\Octane_2019.1.5.0_Houdini_18.0.287_Win64\bin;$PATH"
HOUDINI_PATH = "C:\Otoy\Octane_2019.1.5.0_Houdini_18.0.287_Win64;$"


The path is 100% correct...

Sorry, the problem is that the path append character for the HOUDINI_PATH variable is & not $

Code: Select all

HOUDINI_PATH = "C:\Otoy\Octane_2019.1.5.0_Houdini_18.0.287_Win64;&"

Thanks,
