I wonder if this is a problem to do with the way the plugin handles hierarchy in a scene? There was a problem in the past which has now been fixed when using D-formers. Changes to D-former parameters were not being updated in the OcDS viewfinder for some reason. When D-formers are added they are ...

Ok, I'll try another test using cubes with Instancing + and report back in the next few days. I'll buy Ultrascatter and test this in the same way too. If I encounter any problems I'll send you the project files to see if you can replicate the problem and fix it.

It works but not out of the box and, as you point out, it's a huge amount of work to set it up correctly in OcDS. For me that's a creativity killer. I don't mind putting a lot of work into setting up a scene just right but when I have to do that to get a scene I bought to work as intended then I ...

Thanks for the feedback. I think I'll wait awhile until both scripts are on sale before trying them out. The reason I asked was because I tried using Instancing + but the instances didn't seem to appear in OcDS. I was also disappointed about the Howie Farkes scene not working in the plugin. I'll ...

Is the OcDS plugin able to handle instancing now because I'm interested in buying UltraScatter, a new instancing script? I'm also interested in Voxelizer but not sure if it would work with the OcDS plugin.

Nicely lit scene Hydra. Did you render using direct lighting, path tracing or pmc? I'm trying to light an indoor office scene as naturalistically as possible. Using HDRI and emitters works well in path tracing but the lower the specular and diffuse levels the less realistic it looks and the faster ...

I'm not a Mac user but wondered if it was possible to export a scene without the plugin to the standalone? When v3 couldn't render animation for a few builds I tried this in Win10. Even though I didn't explore it in detail the standalone does a pretty good job with scenes exported via the plugin ...

I'm using the latest build of v3 and trying to find ways to light an office scene I'm working on. I tried some of the suggestions in the link in Paul's signature to reduce noise which have helped but there is still the problem with the length of time the render takes. I've had some ideas to reduce ...

Thanks linvanchene. You've given me a lot of help using the standalone which is very useful in case I use it again in the future. Also useful for others too. I've gone back to the plugin and the latest build seems to be rendering fine so far.

Fantastic! Thanks for the update.

I'm currently rendering with the latest build and so far the few rendered frames seem fine and are the correct size. Another 556 to go. I'll report back if any problems occur.
