Just to check, you are using version 1.19 of the exporter?

The same error happens with both 1.19 and 1.20 :(

Just a quick note for those trying to help: I've instructed DayVids via PM to test the following:
in blender's python console, type following:
import os
os.path.isdir("N:\dddd\ddd)

where N:\dddd\ddd is the path he puts in "Image Output". If the last command returns false it means there's an issue with the path according to python (mostly non-existing). If it returns true then my space detection utility is broken and I've to fix it....

If you have same problem, please try this first.

The issue is that when I put in a file name for the image output, Blender looks for a folder with that file name. So if I create a file name called "ddd" in folder "D:\dddd", it creates a path labeled "D:\dddd\ddd" where that last "ddd" is expected by python to be the last destination folder.

The resolution to this is to make a folder name the same as your desired file naming, and you will then have successful exports and opening of Octane.

I thought I was going crazy, now finally it makes sense, I just didn't understand how Python looked at path names.

In fact the exporter only expects path names, as the file names for the pictures will be based on the project name :-)
