Houdini Engine
SideFX made Houdini Engine for Unreal Engine 4 and Unity available free for commercial use.
The change allowed teams working on commercial projects to deploy procedural assets created in Houdini inside Unreal Engine and Unity without paying for the engine plug-in licence.
Further Information
SideFX Art Director Jerome Hereng discussed the change in the official announcement. Verify current licensing, host versions and Houdini Digital Asset compatibility and test cooking and packaging before production use.
