something strange is happening with animation frames, the first frame begins with a frame 30, the first image pops up as a bug

Hi guys,
Octane Standalone just reads what is inside the alembic file, so is not a Standalone issue but more likely an alembic export problem in the host app.
Here is a simple scene exported from c4dOctane in .orbx format with alembic file:

AlembicExport2.orbx

As you can see, there is no dropped or jumped back frames.

Hi,

Look I download your scene and it's the same problem

Attachments:

Hi amoh,
weird, I have successfully rendered your scene and the mov has no jumping-back frames
Just an idea, but what about the frame naming?
Under mac there's no issue, but I guess that the numbering of the frames could be the issue under Win
What happen if you remove the first ten frames and load the animation in AE from 10 to 80?

Hi Elvis,

Thanks for the detailed video! This is not really a bug.

Like Bepe already pointed out. The problem is how the files are sorted based on their file names. If you use the %f option which inserts the frame number in the file name, then we don't prefix the numbers with 0s. This means that you will have a file ordering like this:

• target_109_0
• target_10_0
• target_110_0

While when you use the %F option, we prefix the file names with 0s. That means you would get something like this:

• target_010_0
• target_109_0
• target_110_0

We will change %f to %F in the default pattern because it's more useful like that.

cheers,
Thomas
