Re: texCache folder???

Funny, I just checked and I don't have that folder at all. The plot thickens...

Re: OctaneRender 2019.1 LightWave beta build 2019.1.0.1 RC3

A microscopic glitch, Juanjo: it should say "barn" doors, not "ban" :)

Possible feature request - dynamic change material

So I have a road sweeping machine that's doing its job, and I would like it if the road surface changed where it passes; a simple from dry (diffuse) to wet (glossy) would suffice...
Except I can't figure out how to do that. So, Juanjo, buddy, is there any way to have a node that uses a reference ...

Re: Degraded performance when switching from other apps

Hola Juanjo,

it's something that's always happened, more or less; I'm on 2015/3.07 right now with a 3gb objects scene, and it takes some 20 seconds to switch back to Layout with IPR open (still instantaneous without IPR)

However, it's become far more noticeable with the 3.08 version of the plug-in ...

Re: Degraded performance when switching from other apps

It happens to me too: if I try to switch to Layout (2015) after minimizing it I can see it in the Windows miniature, but the actual interface only pops up after a while. It gets worse with heavier scenes - and I have three cards, so the reason Newtek gave doesn't hold. I believe the lag was much ...

Re: RC3 Glossy Material bug

But then again. Adkkda, the IOR of glossy now defaults at 1.3, which is why it works that way. Put it back to 1 and bingo.

Re: Poly/Geometry Lights vs Octane Lights

This is interesting; I, too, have noticed that Octane "lights" often cause much less noise than the corresponding luminous polygon - which in theory doesn't make sense, given the way lights work in the plug-in. I've always thought it's either coincidence or me being a complete nincompoop, but maybe ...

Re: News on Release Date?

Not yet, it seems; Juanjo must have found some nasty bug, or maybe he's had a last-minute idea for a killer feature... But I trust it's a matter of days now, if not hours.

Re: OctaneRender™ 3.0 for LightWave™ - Test build 3.08.0.0

It's still an RC, and it seems they've found a bug already. What do you think, Juanjo, is it worth releasing the plug-in with that?
