Lw 2019 render saves to two places

I render properties (LW) I have unchecked everything in buffers and output, and in octane render passes I have selected a location and some beauty passes. When I render it renders to the location selected within octane as well as lightwaves "Base Save Path". I dont want it to render to lightwaves path at all. What am i doing wrong?

Happened in LW2018, and now in 2019. I never could stop LW to save the frames, so I created a Trash folder, I put this path in the lw saver (the right path for the frames is in the octane render passes) and I know to delete all what I find in this trash folder. But it is a stupid no-solution.

That's basically what I had to do as well. I'll submit a bug report to newtek.

Hi,

We are investigating this issue with the help of the LW dev. team. I hope to know more soon ...

Thanks,

If I understand your issue, you may just put the same render path in both places. That's what we do. It is still a pain, no doubt...to have to set both up properly, but we don't see duplicates saves (that I'm aware of) My HD would be full by now If it was saving somewhere else too :)

Maybe that will help temporarily.
