Changed the color of an object in Poser, hit refresh in Octane, but still renders the original color.

BTW. The newest version of plugin renders 3 times faster for me for some reason. Awesome.

How are you changing the color? Are you changing the Poser material color in Poser, or the Octane material color in the plugin?

in poser

If you change a material in Poser, you need to reconvert that material int he plug. Rightclick the material in the material tab and "reconvert from poser". The better workflow is to change the color in the plugin directly, rather than in Poser.

OK, thanks. BTW... What ever changes you made to the plugin, it renders 3 times faster for me. What did you do? Thanks again for your help.

1 more thing. It's a bed sheet and pillow. Can I give a "cloth" like bump or material to them in Octane Plugin, or do I need to do it in Poser? Thanks.

I added a cloth texture in Poser as a bump, and in Octane Plugin, right clicked to re-import material from poser, but still no joy.

If you post a screenshot of the Poser material and the Octane material, we can see what you are trying to achieve.

Basic workflow of the plugin is covered in the manual, so it may be worth you having a read through it.
