CARLA 0.9.15 fails to build Houdini Engine

[andrejfsantos4]

CARLA version: 0.9.15 Platform/OS: Windows 10 - Visual Studio 2022

Problem you have experienced: After running Update.bat, I get this error

-[BuildCarlaUE4]: Building Unreal Editor...
Using 'git status' to determine working set for adaptive non-unity build (D:\Programs\UnrealEngine-0.9.15).
Creating makefile for CarlaUE4Editor (UnrealBuildTool.exe is newer)
While compiling D:\Programs\carla_0.9.15\Unreal\CarlaUE4\Intermediate\Build\BuildRules\CarlaUE4ModuleRules.dll:
d:\Programs\carla_0.9.15\Unreal\CarlaUE4\Plugins\HoudiniEngine\Source\HoudiniEngine\HoudiniEngine.Build.cs(44,7) : error CS0246: The type or namespace name 'EpicGames' could not be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)
UnrealBuildTool: ERROR: Unable to compile source files.

which I attempted to fix by replacing using EpicGames.core with using Tools.DotNETCommon as suggested here (not sure if this is the correct fix). After this, I get a different error:

-[BuildCarlaUE4]: [Batch params]: --build --all

I should add that if I remove Houdini Engine and all references to it, the build finishes successfully and I'm able to run CARLA 0.9.15

Hi @PierceG6, This was a while ago but if I remember correctly these were the changes - I removed the files in red, and made these changes to the files with the yellow icon. Then rebuild and hopefully it'll work!

We deprecated houdini en CARLA, if you get the last dev code would not have issues with houdini anymore.
