1.36 Environments not updating

Is anyone beside me having a problem with the environment node not updating, e.g. changing hdri files in a Texture Environment. It seems to be stuck on the last saved setting under 1.20.
Thanks,

Re: Objects and Materials Missing from OBJ import

Smicha,
Thanks for your kind offer. I've been able to successfully copy my SU emitters and reassign materials as a workaround. I suspect it's something in the SU procedures, but will try more experimenting after this project finishes today. If I'm still having problems I'll send you a copy of the ...

Re: Objects and Materials Missing from OBJ import

TIG,
The facets are larger than >1mm, usually 4" (100mm) dia. and are visible.
I've tried various combinations of reversing faces, recreating the materials, copying the materials, changing size, etc. My workaround has been to copy an object with SU material already assigned that does import to OR ...

I'm creating small surfaces and materials in SketchUp to assign emitters with IES distribution in OR, creating and assigning different materials in SU for each emitter type. It worked successfully for for the first couple emitters, but will not export the objects or materials for the additional ...

Re: IES Settings

Thanks. Great video.
I noticed in the video that there was a lot of adjustment of the power and scale settings to achieve a certain effect. Are there default settings for power, efficiency, etc. that use the IES file in its real world state, i.e. to be most realistic to the actual fixture and lamp ...

IES Settings

I need some basic assistance with IES settings.
1. Should the blackbody power setting always be left at 100, or does it need to change to match the lamp wattage?
2. The power setting under the IES defaults to 0.9. Should it be left at this value?
3. Should the efficiency be set to the actual lamp ...

Re: error running new Octane demo?

New computer with new error message: "The program can't start because cudart64_32_16dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program."

I updated the driver to version 270.71 directly from the Nvidia site which did not solve the problem, so I'm not sure if this is a driver problem or ...

Re: error running new Octane demo?

Option 1 worked.
I was a little embarrassed to list my card, but desparation won out. This computer is going to the bookkeeper, so I'll thankfully be upgrading soon. The video card needs to speak Revit and I had been looking at a Quadro 2000. The GTX cards weren't listed on the Revit compatibility ...

Re: error running new Octane demo?

Similar problem after updating to latest demo version (2.46b). I'm using an FX570 while waiting for computer upgrade, and I updated the driver after getting the error message the first time. Still getting same message.
Thanks for assistance.
