Octane exporter for C4D version 0.11c (obsolete) Tweet

[marco75]

i use this version but it is not so stable, when i export from c4d r12 sometime with some scenes octane after voxelization (at the beginning of the rendering) it close.
the same scene loaded directly as mesh in octane and not directly by c4d as obj file made by the exporter of c4d have no problem.

why????
i have this problem often...

Hi Marco,

Could you please send me an example scene, that shows this behaviour?

Thanks,
Marcus

Have the exact same problem, everything exports, then octane shuts down, now I imported the .obj inside 3dmax, everything loads up perfect inside max, and then into octane again, and shuts it down.. Obviously it's a octane thing.. is it still the file/object naming issues .. ?

BTW 3dmax octane exporter is like 5 times slower than c4d's is, and the c4d plugin is so much nicely implemented, but still, the same problem arises, loads up voxelizes, and octane shuts down with no error messages..

What exact specs are we supposed to follow, I've been debugging this for an hour now, will try an object by object import until I find out which one causes the prob.. it doesn't seem it is related to the octane plugin as much, or let's try the 3dmax forum part

EDIT: Found one solution, and it was stupid/easy..

Make sure you select "Specify GPU devices to use" inside the octane plugin exporter and select a device

The same problem/solution works in both c4d and 3dmax exporter.. I know you don't always need to select it, but maybe it's a multi-gpu thing.. anyway try that

Re-edit: it's a multi GPU thing in my case, crashes octane when I select all the GPUs.. ?
it's octane 2.46b, seems to work only on 1 GPU today..
it's because of my 4th gpu card 8800 gtx, when I take it off runs ok.. well.. that's that sorted

Just tested this on the new Cinema 4D R13 and it seems to work fine.

Thanks for the feedback. If I get some time this week, I will release another update this week.

Cheers,

it works without problem in R13, thanks

Hello Marcus

can I have a technical question?

In case you have more stacked materials (with alphas) the last replaced all bottom materials. It's really bad for decals etc. Is there a solution?

THX for your time, Pavel

Sorry, but i think you get no answer...

Hi guys!.. is there any link for the C4D 13 exporter?
Thanks a lot!

Hi Faustik,
The v11c works perfectly with R13, only issue is to detach from network during animation render
