Installation Issue on Houdini 19.5 Steam version

[SamDot37]

The installation wont work on the steam version of Houdini 19.5.
Tried the same installation-workarounds as i did with SideFx Labs in the steam version but this didnt work either.
Would appreciate any type of hint to get this thing going..

houdini 19.5 steam version hda install
uncertain , specific changes for steam installation would try :

• download / extract zenv into a folder , then rename the folder with the suffix of the houdini version ( zenv19.5 )
• copy zenv19.5 folder into C:/Users/USER/Documents/houdini19.5/packages
• copy the zenv.json up into the packages folder
• edit the json , changing the filepath to the zenv folder to match its current location in packages =

"path": "C:/Users/USER/Documents/houdini19.5/packages/zenv19.5" 
"HOUDINI_OTLSCAN_PATH": "C:/Users/USER/Documents/houdini19.5/packages/zenv19.5/hda"

• alternatively you could try editing the houdini.env in ( C:/Users/USER/Documents/houdini19.5/ ) , there is a houdini.env in the zenv folder as example , ensuring to edit the LOCAL_PATH or HOUDINI_PATH to your installation , and the ZENV_OTLS path to ( C:/Users/USER/Documents/houdini19.5/packages/zenv19.5/hda )

ultimately the hda tools are contained within the zenv/hda folder , and can be moved freely . if the env or json arent working try create a new digital asset hda locally and specify the save location then save , close , and test if it loads ( steam version may be limited to loading from user packages folder ) . if the hda loads then move the zenv/hda tools into that folder .
