Hey, I was wondering that some people talked in different forums about city sample and ue 5.4. The Houdini plugin for the city sample is still not released for 5.4. is there any other trick to get it running? When I tired to open city sample there comes a error message, houdiniplugin not found. Regards Tom
Hey. I’m running city sample in 5.4.1 and Windows 10 without any problem.
Greetings @SAXELECTRO
It looks like their post was a few weeks back. There may have been updates on city sample since. Was the plugin updated for 5.4, by chance? Thanks!
I tried to upgrade an existing City Sample from 5.1 to 5.41 in place, and that failed. I deleted it and created a new one just fine. It took several hours with all the deleting and downloading, but it worked. I do have the latest Houdini from Nov 2023 with Unreal plugin loaded.
Once you get in City Sample, there are many glitches, particularly with clipping on the elevated freeways. Vehicles will drop through and experience damage as they fall through. It’s pretty fun in a way, very much like a glitch in the Matrix. The sheer size of this thing is awesome, and I’m not complaining. It’s beautiful and I love it.

Hi, I have a project that began with the city sample (it is a film project that takes place in the city sample city). It is a 5.3 project and today I wanted to take advantage of the new retargeting system of 5.4 so I tried to open it in 5.4.3. I was hit with:
The following modules are missing or built with a different engine version:
CitySample
CitySampleEditor
CitySampleAnimGraphRuntime
Soundscape
SoundscapeEditor
Crossfader
CrossfaderEditor
CitySampleMassCrowd
CitySampleSensorGrid
CitySampleSensorGridShaders
HoverDrone
WorldAudioDataSystem
WorldAudioDataSystemEditor
PointCloud

MassTraffic
MassTrafficEditor
Would you like to rebuild them now?
of course I hit yes but was then hit with:
projectX could not be compiled. Try rebuilding from source manually.
I’ve updated my visual studio 2022, and the game c++ is installed.
Does anybody know how to fix this? @aacloudguy when you said it ‘failed’ can you be more specific? As well, how you worked around it? I have a very modified project since starting with the city sample and I’d hate to lose what I’ve got. Any help would be very appreciated.
I cannot get the City Sample to install at all on my PC, I keep getting installer Failed errors telling me the Maximum path length exceeded, and to please specify a shorter install location and the thing is I tried every sort of scenario too, even with a direct drive location and no folders. I’m on an Omen with Windows 11. I tried it with all the different versions as well. Anyone else experiencing this?
I noticed that my CitySample seems to be missing this file ‘Building_Generator_PDGed. bgeo. sc’
