Hi Andygraph

Do you mean animated Octane materials? Or animated "image" maps?

I haven't had any requests for the former. Regarding the animated image maps, I have progressed this, but stopped work because I don't want to put a solution in place which conflicts with the proposed Alembic export (and cloud rendering) features that Otoy have announced. The animated image maps solution used by the Poser plugin needs to work efficiently with the Alembic export mechanism - so I'm waiting to see how this will be implemented first to determine the best solution.

i talk about import like texture map a sequence of jpeg picture, is it possible add this feature in octane poser plugin ?

poser make the render from jpeg sequence (but with no preview look) so will need only make output data from poser to octane plugin for reload the numerated textures ..

Unfortunately PoserPyhton does not expose any information on which actual jpg file is used for a given Poser frame, so implementing this is not as simple as it might seem. I will look into it....
