Special environment settings for Windows

bifcmd uses third-party libraries packaged with Bifrost to run.

Add C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Bifrost\<maya_version>\<bifrost_version>\bifrost\thirdparty\bin to your PATH environment variable.

If your compound contains USD nodes, add your USD installation directory to your PATH environment variable as well - for example, as follows:

set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Bifrost\<maya_version>\<bifrost_version>\bifrost\thirdparty\bin;C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Bifrost\<maya_version>\<bifrost_version>\bifrost\packs\usd_pack\<usd_version>\thirdparty\<usd-usd_version>\bin
Important:

If you have more than one version of Maya or Bifrost installed, set this path in the command window where you will be running bifcmd. Setting it in your global environment variables can cause a conflict with the other versions of Maya and Bifrost.
