Re: OctaneRender 4 for DAZ Studio [TEST and STABLE]

Has there been an update on HDR Lightmap Integration on the roadmap at all?
Has it been cast into the Poser Update Roadmap?

You would need to add that as a FR in the DAZ3d forums.Is there a link to somewhere a search can be started for that option for a generic HDR Light connection to Daz Studio?

updated to 4.0041 (from an old 3.something)
even with the simple cube the renderer seems stuck at building geometry - or displaying *rendering* string but the yellow bar ping pong-ing left and right with no other result.
i've erased the previous octane settings..
using daz 4.10.0.123
win 7
what am i missing ?
edit: i just needed to update my gpu drivers, works now !
If you can find a specific set of steps which reproduces this problem, I can investigate further.But usually only for a little while then bam! it happens again bars slide back and forth, back and forth. I find sometimes if you render "final" it works and then stop it, it renders ok, and sometimes, I have to load DAZ Studio and the scene again to make it work, but hey... this last method still beats iRAY for rendering by 2 minutes.

Downloading it now. Will try it out. Hopefully the issues I was facing with the RC builds will not be there anymore.

Hi Paul,
I can confirm I am not getting any of the issues I was facing with the Octane 4 RC version. But now I am getting a crash very often when I fiddle with the material in NGE. It always is at the same Octane::ApiColor method in the octane plugin dll. In most of the crash instances I was changing the Diffuse Texture. It crashed after I selected the new texture.
