HOT
Houdini Ocean Toolkit
This version of the HOT is strictly for versions of Houdini >= 12.0. For legacy versions go to the old repository on the Google Code site.
BUILDING ON LINUX/OSX
Compile and install with
./compile.sh
(Read the source of the compile.sh script for more build options.)
Test by loading the examples, start with SOP_Simple.hip.
BUILDING ON WINDOWS
The process is somewhat dodgy, but it should work.
You need to be in a command prompt with both the MSVC and Houdini environment initialized. The recommended way is the following:
-
open a Visual Studio Command Prompt (from Start Menu)
-
navigate to the HOT folder
-
edit the compile_pre.bat file so the path in it points to your Houdini installation
-
type "compile_pre.bat" (this will initialize the Houdini environment)
-
type "compile.bat" (this will build the HOT dlls)
That's all. If everything went fine, you'll have the DLLs in your Houdini config folder's "dso" subfolder.
