Local DB .ORBX import error Tweet

[itsallgoode9]

I created an .ORBX material in maya 2019 (in the 2019 plugin) and I get the following error:

connectAttr -f Medium_Basalt.outColor Medium_BasaltSG.surfaceShader;
// Connected Medium_Basalt.outColor to Medium_BasaltSG.surfaceShader. //
// Error: Octane LiveDB: error creating Octane-DB node //
// Error: file: C:/Program Files/Autodesk/Maya2020/scripts/others/propertyPanel.mel line 829: No object matches name: Vertex_displacement_mixer //


I attempted this on a brand new, empty, scene as well as my scene originally created in 2019
It works fine to manually import that material via .ORBX material node but not via LocalDB.

Will be fixed in the next version.

Should this be fixed in the current release? I have several ORBX files in my local DB with materials that work fine in Octane/Standalone and Octane/C4D, but refuse to import (with the same "error creating Octane-DB node" message in Maya.

hello Packetslave,

Thank you so much!!

The LocalDB should work in Maya too if it works fine in Octane Standalone.
Could you please PM me a sample of the local DB file for us to test?

Cheers
