Here you get shown how to export Alembic.
It does create a image sequence, but it also creates a .abc file, so you can ignore/ delete the image sequence and just use the .abc

The video was very helpful but unfortunately exporting alembic seems to be broken with Octane Blender 2.06. I did not get an abc file at the end.

That sux dude.
the .abc file wasn't were I set my Blender output to be. What it seems to do when you export is send all the data to your LiveDB folder on your Home drive: HDD/User/Home/livedb/alembic
You'll see that it created separate folders for alembic, textures, previews.
This makes a nice little repository of all the necessary data you want to pass along with your Alembic file.

Hope it helps

Cool. I was able to find the abc file in that folder.

Hey and thanks for the plugin!
Is this still in development?
I found a bug: Invisible Objects (i mean where the "render-camera-symbol" is disabled) will be rendered .. also when i move them to an other layer the are still visible.
Greets!

Hi.

If I tried to make an animation, I get this screen. Can somebody help me?

But I use 2.72 version of Blender.

Thanks

Same here. Anyone can help?

Hello, can anybody please give me a hint, how to use this 2.02 exporter?
Theres an error popping up for 'fly animation', 'animation' and 'camera update', saying:

Octane render settings has no attribute 'replace_project'

In Octane Project settings I've chosen a unique name, so why there is a
replace-error?

cheers

Why this isn't as part of official Blender plugin. It is shame.
It should be essential feature.

I see things like this and get totally jealous. SketchUp is getting the short end of the stick at Otoy.

Do all the features of stand along Octane work in $139 Blender plugin? I tried it and can't figure out how to do displacement , passes and looks like even HDR tone mapping is not working . Am I missing something?
