To make it easier to follow along or get caught up, checkpoints of my scene file are be periodically saved and uploaded to a publicly accessible web directory[1].

Whenever a new scene file is shared, a link is posted in Twitch chat. You can use this link to download the file and open it in Houdini.

If you'd like to simplify this process, you can use a shelf tool[2] which calls a script when clicked on. In this case, fetch the most recently shared scene and merge it into your Houdini session.

You can download the .shelf here. Install it by placing it in this location $HOME/houdiniX.x/toolbar/twitch.tv.johnkunz.shelf


Create the Shelf Tools Yourself

If you prefer a more hands on approach, the shelf can be added manually by right-clicking in any empty shelf area and clicking "New Tool...". This will raise a dialog window where the tool's name, label and icon can be defined[3].

The Python code used in these shelf tools can be found below, Python2 and Python3 are both supported.
