When will H18.5 will be supported out of the box with Deadline installer?

I just installed the latest 10.12.xx and I noticed that H18.5 is STILL NOT available out of the box ? Any ETA on that ?

Thank you,

Tanguy

Usually there is a pop up box when you’re writing a post with suggested content relevant to your post.

I did a search for 18.5 in the forum search box and it looks like there is a temp fix here

Houdini 18.5 (possibly USD/Karma support)

Hey everyone, Asking if we can expect Houdini 18.5 support for Mantra and possibly even support for Karma. I understand that you don’t want to support Beta Software but it seems like Karma will be labeled “Beta” until it has complete feature parity with Mantra. I expected that I could simply change the Plugin Path from H18 to H18.5 for Mantra to work through Deadline, but for some reason, it broke everything for me. Even using H18 in Deadline until a clean new install of Deadline + Repository. …

I’m being optimistic in hoping that all the features requested in this thread are being worked on, for now the quick fix in the thread may help. If not then this is probably the best thread to add in your requested feature

Personally I blame SideFX for releasing so many features, hopefully when 19 is released it’ll just be a new poly bevel tool

yes I know and I am using it but it is quite time consuming and what, H18.5 is mainstream now. Should be out of the bat working with 18.5
happy new year !

It’ll be in 10.1.13 when we get that out the door.
