Digital assets not loading after re-install


Recommended Posts

I had to re-install houdini after a computer failure and afterward, I went through re-installing my plugins. after I'd install one of them, I'd save it as a 'permanent default' and it would be put into $home="Documents/houdini" and when I open it in that same project, it works fine, but if I open another project, the assets don't load.

 

I'm wondering if maybe I can/ need to change where digital assets save to? I've re-installed several times and nothing's working. I'm not quite sure what i'm doing wrong

In the Houdini enviroment file placed in documents/houdini17.0 you can add the path of your digital assets. You just need to add a line to tell Houdini where to look for them.

For example:

HOUDINI_OTLSCAN_PATH="C:/here_your_path for_hda; @/otls"

 

I usually place them all together in one folder so is easy to find/replace/remove them if needed. You need to keep the end part with @otls
