Houdini Hip File Manager v1.0
Added 2025-02-14 12:03:57 +0000 UTCThis is a super handy panel in Houdini that allows you to open your hip files latest version with just one click!
Important! You must have versions like this format "_v01". For now. If you have any other and its not working for you, let me know ill add it!
Simple setup:
1. Just move the file to you "documents/houdini ***/python panels" location, if there is no folder "python panels" create it.
2. Then in Houdini open Python Panel, and find this Panel called "HipFileManager"
3. After that you should see it as a regular panel (see screenshot)
4. If not, go to Settings in Python Panel and drag this panel from left side to right side in both Tabs.
5. Now you 100% should see it everywhere and add it as a default panel and save Layout so when you start Houdini you will see your list of hip files you working on right now!
How to use:
Simply click Add Path and choose the folder where is the Hip files, it shows you all hips in the popup windows and you select one or multiple and thats it. Then when you click the button with your hip it will ask to open it, in case if you accidentally click it. Also you can open Folder or remove it. And it understands the main folders of the same project and group it in the interface.
