OctaneRender™ Standalone 1.10 Tweet

Faster OBJ parser.
it is multicore voxelization?

No, it's a complete rewrite of the parser that reads in OBJ files. It's now parsing faster than you can read from a hard disk, which means multi-threading won't help much since I/O is the bottleneck. Btw, this was introduced in version 1.01.

Voxelization is what is done, after Octane has read a mesh.

Well then after that there's SSD.... ~275mb/s for SATA2 and ~550 mb/s for SATA3 effectively.

I've upgraded both my workstations to SSD recently so if it could be reworked for muti core it would be nice
Actually even only 2 threads would be acceptible.

Yeah yeah, one step after another Please wait until 1.11, which will improve a few more things in that area. Just wait and see.

Will the new 1.1 PMC kernel ever work on older GPUs (compute model < 2.0)?
Thanks.

Octane fog and all the other features like architectural glass, spherical and cylindrical camera and Octane dirt will be in the next test build, which we plan to release this week.

Thanks RayTracey, this is big news for using Octane in our 360° room studio and developing architecture!!!
