I don't know about a ready renderfarm for LW+Octane, but in Garagefarm you can rent 1 or more servers with 10 GTX1080 or 8 V100. Of course if already you have a RTX 4090, rent only 1 of these server hasn't so much sense (Octane bench: RTX 4090=1274, Server 10 GTX 1080=2093, Server 8 V100=3037).

Hmm, I used that setup yesterday and it worked, are you sure you had UV map/projection node plugged in ?

I used LW turbulence texture, not really grid but shouldn't be any difference if one procedural works, no reason others wouldnt.

I think I do all right because in 2020 works without problems ...

Hi Juanjo,
thankyou for this update.

There is a bug in 2021: the LW procedural textures (as grid, checkboard, and so on) connected in the red "procedural" link of "Octane Texture Image" node, don't work. All was ok in 2020, not in 2021.

I hope you can fix it...

Bye and happy new year :)

Thakyou Juanjo, I was not expecting this, so it is a very big and apreciated surprise.
I was hoping to find the boolean node one day or the other, before your post about the end of the plugin, but ok, can't have all from the life.
Bye

I feel the floor crumble under my feet...
At 51 y.o. change the sw for me is very hard... I do with lw things that I'm sure I can't do with others sw... maybe I can do different, but I can forget the circus acts I used to make lightwave do (one above all the automatic transformation in the modeler ...

Lightwave still lives (ok, still isn't dead) only bec. octane and Juanjo's plugin exist.

Unfortunately the problem is still here.
Ok, don't worry ...

Hi,
maybe because you moved the pivot point? It happened to me only one time because usually I don't move the pivot, so I didn't care and I didn't lost more time, simply I resolved copyng the object, but maybe this is your problem. Need some tests.

Hello,
any news about plugin PR11 for lightwave? Really it is a super big pain work with PR8: always loses the license or jumps in demo mode if move to other program in background... Always can render only few frames and demo mode breaks all. Can't switch to modeler, or photoshop, or AE, or other ...
