About This App

Houdini Indie is the free-to-use non-commercial version of Houdini, Side Effects Software's industry-leading 3D procedural animation, visual effects and motion graphics software. It is used by students, hobbyists, indie developers and small studios for character animation, particle effects, fluid simulation, procedural modelling, rendering and post-production work. Houdini's node-based workflow and powerful VEX scripting language make it highly extensible. The Indie edition removes commercial licensing restrictions but is otherwise identical to the full release. A native Apple Silicon build has been confirmed running on Macs in the Rosetta Check community.

A native Apple Silicon build of Houdini Indie exists and has been spotted in the wild. To upgrade from the Intel version you are currently running, visit Side Effects Software's official download page at sidefx.com/download and download the latest release — the site will automatically serve the native Apple Silicon build on M-series Macs. After installing the new native build, your existing scene files, custom operators and preferences will carry over without migration. You should see noticeably faster viewport performance, simulation times and rendering speeds on your M-series Mac compared to running under Rosetta 2. If you are enrolled in the Houdini apprenticeship or educational licence programme, confirm your licence is valid before installing.
