Hi!

I was wondering, with Toby's departure, how long is it going to take to have someone take over his excellent work on the DAZ Studio plugin ?

I am sure that I'm talking for a lot of us when I say that considering the amount of evolution on the plugin over the period he was here, he will be ...

I personally haven't had any issues with Octane materials saving in a scene (haven't tried a material preset though).

I have been having blue screens on and off most of this year though, with the errors of TDR Delay and PDC Watchdog mostly, but maybe others. At least some of them where caused by ...

The 'focus to selected object' camera focus mode seems to have stopped working, using it sets the camera to manual focus distance with a focal depth of 2.14 instead.

Oh and switching camera types seems to spit out those same log messages as above as well.

On start-up this is showing in the Octane Log under the system tab:

Somewhere between 210 and 302 (I skipped 211), a lot of the options in the right click menu in the NGE stopped working, either when clicking a node or the background. When clicking a node, cut, copy and delete no longer work and collapse and collapse inputs both seem a lot slower (based on my ...

Still getting crashes on Collapse Inputs (On the Mix material node in this case). I had another one a few days ago on a auto generated emitter material, but forgot to save the crash report.

Just a little extra info: Alembic is a common industry standard(?) open file format for exporting and importing animations and is supported by a lot of 3d programs; Maya, Blender, Houdini and UE4/5 just to list a few. DazStudio does have an alembic export/import plugin, but it costs $90 on the Daz ...

This might be an unpopular opinion, but before any other new nodes/features get added could the UI lag be looked at? With each addition (nodes, etc) the UI gets slower and slower, it's not uncommon to have a second or 2 delay for the UI to update when using the NGE or just selecting a material in ...

Why does hair and I mean non-strand-based hair but normal hair now render all translucent now?

Or have I stuffed around with too many settings again?

This is a colour space issue, it happens all the time now days, the plugin is not consistent about it at all, and the 2022.x based version of the ...

Thanks. Can you please export the material that you were collapsing as orbx and PM me? And let me know which node you were collapsing.

Unfortunately it doesn't look like I can, it was something new to the scene so it wasn't saved when it crashed and I kept working on the scene after the crash ...
