This is the recommended thread for downloading, and posting any questions, suggestions or support queries for OctaneRender for Poser, build 1.17a (TEST RELEASE). This version is compiled against Octane 1.17, so see the requirements for that build regarding compatibility with your video card.
This version runs on Poser9/PoserPro2012 and Poser10/PoserPro2014, on Windows XP, Vista, 7 and 8.
If you have a support issue, pls provide the following information:
- Operating System (ie. Win XP, Vista, 7, 8)
- 32 or 64 bit
- Amount of RAM
- Graphics Card(s) - model (ie. GTX 580, 3GB)
- Nvidia driver version
- Poser version (Poser -> Help -> About Poser) - list the build number (eg. 9.0.3.23027)
- OctaneRender for Plugin version (ie. X.XXa)
- Also have ready a copy of the octaneplugin.log and cuda.log file from your Poser temp direction (Poser -> Edit -> General Preferences -> Misc tab to find the temp directory)
Change Log from release 1.16a
- Compiled against Octane 1.17
- Added material picking (enable in the Viewport buttons and then click on the Viewport to pick the material)
- Fixed issue with filenames/folder names with special characters in the image, alphaimage and floatimage file selection dialog
- Fixed issue with foldernames with '&' characters corrupting the config.xml file
- If you select a parented or shadow camera whilst rendering, the viewport will continue rendering the previous window (whereas previously it would close the Viewport). You cannot open the viewport whilst viewing a shadow or parented camera though.
This version does not address the bump map power being set to default when pasting keeping original texturemaps - but I will look at it very shortly.
