OTOY Forums

Hi Jimstar,
Are there plans to reveal what would us be expecting for future of the max plugin itself?
Update in passes mechanism and multithreading is really a good start.

I wonder if you had a look at the
OctaneRender Max Plugin Collaborative Wishlist
Simply looking at the first post would suffice. I'm trying to keep it updated when I came across reasonable wishes in the forum.

cheers

i asked this question like 5 times and never got an answer if they are planning to fix it. They said long time ago that they do not have a real flow license to fix this problem. And MB does not work either.
You can try this RF render script that will refresh for you by sliding the timer every frame.

I wonder why checkbox is called "movebale proxy", seems right "movable proxy"? )

it only updates in octane view port but not during actual rendering

I asked about the scene where I can reproduce it already few times (and in this thread as the first post).
Guys, the more informative your bugreports will be - the more chances they will be fixed quickly. Sometimes the simple "it does not work" says nothing to me if I can't reproduce it on my side. Please take into account I'm programmer, not 3d-artist, I don't generate the complex animation scenes - I have a lot of other things to spend the time to. So I need the scene and detailed instructions from you of how to reproduce your issue. As soon as I've reproduced it on my side - I can fix it quickly in most cases.

Hi JimStar
I will try to send you over soon. Problem is it is a max scene and external real flow bin files where liquid simulation is stored and they use a lot of memory
Thanks

I render stitched alembic file, so it all worked out.

Next version HERE.
