OctaneRender™ 3.0 for LightWave™ - Test build 3.08.0.0 Tweet

[juanjgon]

Great stuff, going to try it now
I am never quite sure which version of the standalone Octane I need to have installed for each LightWave Octane version. Does it say somewhere?

The plugin doesn't need the Standalone installed to work at all. You only need the Standalone in the render nodes if you are working with network rendering. In this case, usually, the Standalone download links to be used with the plugin are available in the same release post.

Thanks,

After installed still can't find toon mat....would you care to tell me what can i do?

You need to add the Octane .p plugin again to the Layout to see the new nodes, but be aware that you must make this operation from an empty scene layout, and after removing the Octane master plugin from the Mater Plugins panel (CTRL+"q")

Thanks,

How do you scale workspace, is that a windows thing ?

I cranked this bad boy up but it didn't work with LW, I got bigger font in Chrome though.

Ah, I did it for the wrong monitor.

But still it is no good, font inLW is enlarged but a little bit blurred.

would it be possible to automate the following procedure of building a material from a library of images.

Here is a snapshot of all images for one material. They all have suffix which corresponds to an input type.

So I can manually build a material to use all these textures. But when I want to build another one with another set of images I have to change them all manually.

How could I inject all images from a folder to a specific material ( surface ) ?
