Exporting from 3DSMAX TO ORBX problem

When exporting "animated" geometry from 3dsmax to an orbx file for use in the stand-alone, not only is it MUCH slower on keyframed animated geometry rather than non animated geometry, but it is creating a new mesh PER KEYFRAME for all animated geometry. It is making massive massive files. Can you check into this immediately. I posted this to Jules on the FACEBOOK page and he has asked I post it here straight away to get it confirmed.

I am using V4 RC4 6.07

Did you try his suggestion above? Did it make any difference?

Yes that suggestion makes no difference at all the massive file size, same 3 hour export.

From our discussion via skype, to anyone else with this problem:

For any objects with animations that don't involve vertex animation, "Movable proxy" in the Octane object properties should be enabled.

Christophe is looking into making this setting automatically determined during export, to avoid this in future.
