Hello,

I am thinking about moving into a GPU renderer, however I will move to the one which has the better material conversion from Vray as I have some objects and scenes done. Probably, as me, there are MANY Vray users thinking about a change, and, with the time, we will become learning the new ...

Thank you boths!

Well, firstly I will need to work a little with 3Dsmax and then will make the jump with Octane, thanks again!

Really thank you for your help kavorka!

2 more little questions, hehe.
Do you know something bout doing Octane wark cpu + gpu in future?
If I buy a license, I will be able to have the program when it becames retail? (It's currently beta, I think)

Ok!

Then, I'm thinking about reorganizing my method, I could make my 3D "base" in Autocad (Buildings, etc), export to 3Dsmax, which I have seen has a lot of free high quality objects (Maybe the modeler that has the higher amount) and, here is my current doubt, export to Octane or work with Octane ...

It sounds good! but one question; how do you export from Blender to Octane? (Maybe I can find a similarity with my soft and try to do it like you do with Blender, or I could do it from 3Dmax and only buy the standalone version )

Thanks again

Thank you kavorka!

I'm using Autocad and then open it in Artlantis to apply materials and put objects like furniture etc, so I think it hasn't a plugin for Octane... However it can export to .obj but in other programs it opens like one blank material.
I have 3Dmax too, which I almost don't use, but ...

Hi!

I would want to know if I can import an .obj file which have the materials applied yet.
Specifically I would want to "work" qith another software in which I have lot of textured objects, so I would set the model and the textures there, with furniture, etc, and I will go to Octone for lights ...
