OTOY Forums

I noticed that Octane on lightwave doesn't support the arbitrary range in the render properties.
I need to render only certain frames of a setup but and I wrote the frames to be rendered like 2-3-7 etc...
but after the first 2 it stops rendering.
Also in the past I noticed that it didn't worked ..is this a known limitation?

This sounds like a bug. I'll check it.

Thanks,

What I can tell you for sure is that if you assign an arbitrary range like 3,5,7,11 after the last frame Octane restarts rendering
from the first frame...

Hello Juanjo
have you cheked this bug?
It is very annoyng also as Octane restarts rendering and the only way to stop it is killing the process...
thx

Sorry for the late reply. I'm trying to find and fix this issue for the next build right now ...

Thanks!

Ok. This problem seems related to a bug in LightWave. The LW team is aware of it, so I hope they could find a solution for the next LW build(s), but meanwhile, I've added a workaround in the plugin code that hopefully could fix this problem. I'll include this fix in the plugin builds.

Thanks Juanjo.

In LW 2015 and Octane 4.04 that works fine so it's either LW 2018----> bug or octane 2018.x bug ?

To me, this is a bug introduced in LightWave 2018

Thanks,
