I've run into something that I would like to share with the group. I love the Orbx format because it allows me to cross connect my shaders no matter the application that I'm working in so I'm not stuck constantly having to re-create materials in each application. But I've noticed something in Cinema ...

I'm starting to work more with stylized characters and I have been looking for some tutorials on how to do stylized skin in Octane for Maya. I'm not talking about the toon shader. I'm talking about trying to achieve skin like you might see in the recent "Scoob" movie or "Abominable" where it's not ...

You have a tab for LiveDB and you have a tab for your presets and the QuickEdit. Will we ever get a tab for our LocalDB in a similar way? It's a bit tedious to import Orbx files to get your materials into the plugin. If you Import them, the only way to save them appears to be saving them as a preset ...

I'm running version R3.0.20.22 but this also happened to me in version 2.24 as well. I never have gotten it to render out an animation sequence. I don't get any error messages. I'm running a dual Xeon six core processors, Windows 10 and two GTX980ti's for my rendering. Like I said, still renders ...

Help! I'm trying to do an animation in Octane 3 and all I get is a black screen for each frame. If I render a single frame, then it renders to the Octane Viewport fine. I haven't changed any camera settings, and this screenshot is of my animation settings. Is there somewhere I'm going wrong? I'm ...

I uninstalled the Octane 3.0 beta on my Windows 10 machine. Now when I launch Daz Studio, I get this error message:

The program can't start because tbb.dll is missing from your computer. Try again reinstalling the program to fix this issue.

I am trying to go back to my version 2.25, which ...

I may have missed this in my reading, but how do you change the default render settings? I'm tired of having to go in and setup for 1080P each time I open DAZ Studio, but I can't see anywhere to change the default render settings. I see there's a drop down for your own --but not how to override the ...

This is the first time I've worked with Octane Standalone. I was basically importing some orbx files from another application and when you got to save once you've got it loaded --there's no way to set the save behavior to default to the localdb instead of an orbx file. It's really tedious to have to ...

Thanks for the information. I'll give the test build a try and see how it works out. It will save me a lot of time if I can get it done that way.

Hello Everyone.

I've been using Octane now for a while, but I have decided to move out of Octane Render in order to Render in Cinema 4D or Modo. There are shaders that I use that I would like to take from DAZ into Cinema 4D, but I don't see any sort of way to export the shaders --either to the ...
