Re: Buying a second copy of the Sketchup Plugin

And also i'm not using offline authentication either, I have to connect to the internet everytime i want to use it as well otherwise it doesnt work.

Re: Buying a second copy of the Sketchup Plugin

Hi Shenron,
yes, you always need both the licenses if you want to execute OctaneRender on a different machine at the same time.
Anyway, with v3, deactivating means cloasing the application on your office pc to free up the license, without waiting any time, the license can be activated on a ...

Re: Getting foil like finnish on cube

Yay,

Got it right.

Thanks for your help. Will upload a pic once the whole project is done.

Re: Getting foil like finnish on cube

Hi Chris,

Can this be a modeling issue? I've had this problem a few times before, but then I just "explode" all the geometry in my model because I use ...

I'm a bit new to octane, yes a noobie. I tried to render a simple cube that's supposed to look like a perspex cube thats sandblasted with a light inside. As you can see it came out all wrong...
Used a specular material for the cube because a diffuse one doesn't come anywhere close ...

Re: tutorial request

This would be great. I'm also pretty new to octane but have been modeling in sketchup for a couple of years now. One of the users have uploaded great tutorials which have been a great help (http://www.youtube.com/user/MTimtam?feature=watch). But like you said, it would be greatly appreciated if we ...
