Hello there,

I'm working on huge project in Lightwave Octane, when I convert my Lightwave scenes in abc/orbx everything looks good in terms of motions/deformations on the meshes, but the only thing who doesn't match my LW scenes are the animated materials.

When I convert my scenes, I activate the update material button, and at this time, it seems to be bad because when i'm reloading the converted files into the Octane Standalone all my shaders and materials are blank.

How can I do to make my animated materials visible in the standalone ? I've several image sequences mapped into surfaces like fire and other things. is it a limitation of the Standalone ?

Thanks.

Hi KVNOODLES,
probably there is an issue when the abc file is exported, better to ask in the lightwave section. In the mean time, you can correct your animated texture directly in Standalone:

Thanks bro !

You save my life ! I'm not really an expert in the standalone... ;-)

I'll ask to Juanjgon for my issue.
