Hi,
I am curious if there are people in-the-know here that might be aware of a Houdini Auto Setup of some kind being on the roadmap in the near future.
If not, I was gonna create one for myself (and maybe release it to the public at some point), but it will be many weeks of work to do it properly, and I’d genuinely feel silly if an official tool got released soon after that. 
Cheers to all.
I’d be very surprised to learn that any Houdini pipeline was in the works at RL. As far as I can tell, there are probably not enough iClone users that also work with Houdini. RL does not even support 3DCCs such as C4D, which is being used by several members of this forum and also probably more accessible to newcomers/hobbyists than Houdini, with a dedicated pipeline/Auto Setup feature.
Houdini is unique because of its simulation features. What has been asked in the past is an option to import Houdini simulations. This could be in the form of USD and adding USD import to iClone would be a great enhancement.
