Load Example HDAs

Problem

Using Linux the example files from the documentation can’t be loaded directly from the browser link.

These .hda files are located at:

Terminal window
/opt/hfsXXX.XX.XX/houdini/help/examples/

For example the HDA for the Shallow Water Solver is located at

Terminal window
/opt/hfs20.5.445/houdini/help/examples/nodes/sop/shallowwatersolver

To load this file:

  1. Go to File/Import/Houdini Digital Asset

  2. Enter the file address Load Dialog

  3. Install locally in the scene
