Question 1
I already entered the may competition of "Render the metaverse" and now I have another work ready to be submitted for the july competition but in the table of the required details of the entry I find a new thing: "Pano viewer - yes". Is this an option I have to enable somewhere in Octane ...

Yes, it is possible. On the render settings in max there's a "tool" panel with an export button. It will export your max scene in an .orbx file format which can be opened in Octane standalone. It exports camera animations. I haven't tried with mesh animations yet but I think it can't see why it ...

I don't think so but I try anyway to ask this: is it possible to export the scene as an .orbx file format using 3ds max? If it's not possible, how can I import a 3ds Max scene into Octane Render standalone without too much troubles? I'm working on a new entry for the metaverse contest and I would ...

I updated my video card drivers and the problem was solved. I have an Nvidia GTX760M and I simply updated the drivers to the latest version (353.30) through Nvidia GeForce Experience. Everything works fine now! Thanks Jim

I'm trying to install the latest Octane VR 3ds Max plugin but I get this error message when opening 3ds Max:

DLL <C\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2015\PlugIns\Octane3dsmax.dlr> failed to initialize. Error code 127 - The specified procedure could not be found.

I tryed uninstalling (even cleaning ...

Really? The image to upload for the metaverse contest must be 18432 x 1536 pixels, so maybe this is the reason for long rendering times.. My gpu is a GTX760M with 2 Gb of Ram, it's not that bad, what could I possibly have done wrong? I have just created a scene in 3ds max, applied the materials and ...

Hello everyone, I have a silly question about the octane 3ds max plugin workflow. It's about 72 hours that the render of my scene for the metaverse contest has started. I still want to wait a couple of days and get a better final quality but I also would like to save a copy of the render at the ...

Ok, maybe I've missed something very important here: aren't the .orbx files containers for animations too? On the contest judging parameters they wrote "Viewing experience including navigability and interactivity". So my question is: Do we have "only" to create a beautiful panorama or do we have to ...

Can someone from otoy tell us if an .orbx viewer for pc will be available and when? I'm really interested in "render the metaverse" competition but without an .orbx viewer accessible to everyone it would be really difficult to check our works. The main problem is that not everyone of us competitors ...

But they also wrote "and a pano viewer in the forums". I was wondering if there's already the possibility to view the orbx files..
