Thomas Helzle Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I use the same and it works. #Redshift: PATH = "C:/ProgramData/Redshift/bin;$PATH" HOUDINI_PATH = "C:/ProgramData/Redshift/Plugins/Houdini/16.0.705;&" Check if you have the Redshift toolbar.

ISUther Posted November 8, 2017 Author Share Posted November 8, 2017 I wonder how easy it is to install. I have atm new Houdini 16.5.268 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgie Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 No installation, only a bat file that is used to set up the environment and launch Houdini. 16.5 support is not available yet - maybe in a couple of weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
