win7 / R17.048

the LV update is slow when i activate octane scatter. also when the cloneamount is only 1.

Yes i have notified that. Thanks for your posts. They are really helpful. I found a bug in mixmaterial's opengl part. It was crashing when you copy/paste to new scene.
I'm looking also for scatter problem. I suppose that's due my last minute revisions on scatter object. Most likely all slowdown problems are related with scatter object.
Hopefully i'll fix all and make a new release.

yep, i know that and i'm sorry
but c4d freese = nobugReport at all

for scene, i have to debrand before send it , and before and before i had to render my job...

It's very hard to help when lot of people flood many post. Please send me a scene to test it. Also describe the steps to reproduce. I cannot simulate every scenario to avoid problems/crashes. C4D is very big tool and imposible to test every functions without your helps.

scene send via pm.

thanks

I'm getting a ton of freezes on material changes and dragging and dropping. Actually have had to kill the C4D process 4 times in 2 hours. As well the LV doesn't seem to be updating on changes as well as Test5 did. Reverting back from stable to Test5 if changing to the r17 file in the plugin folder doesn't fix it.

Edit: How do I get Test5.2 back?

There is not differences as you said between two versions? What's your C4D version? What kind of scenes are you talking?

It was a fairly simple scene, mostly using "alt" to replace c4d materials with LV open. Just a CNC machine. Using r17 lastest SP and sometimes beta versions of C4D (I do testing for Maxon). Also haven't experienced it after swapping to the r17 file in the octane folder rather than the r16 one. The freezes were mostly happening when dragging octane materials to meshes with LV open or dragging octane materials on top of C4D materials in material manager. Too random to reproduce.

I understand how difficult it is to adapt a 3rd party plug to a large existing code monster like C4D. If I come across it more or can reproduce the freezes, I'll report back the steps.

İt can be related with opengl textures. what's your c4d and is version? Is it belong to this plugin version?

C4d version I was using was 17.048 (commercial RB) and os win 7, and the .cdl64 file I was using was r16. Nvidia and 361.43 drivers.

is it happening on which versions?

Is there any way to make use of the Position and Rotation channel of the scatter?

It seem not working yet
It would be great to add some randomness with noise shader here. Now it seems that only Y in position and X in rotation gives any results.
Waiting for the Scatter Object development. All the best to you Aoktar.

Everything I listed is exactly what it happened with. I haven't experienced it since I started using the r17 cdl, but I'm not doing the same thing I was now either.

Could somebody please try this version before publishing? Thanks.

win7 / R17.048

the LV update is slow when i activate octane scatter. also when the cloneamount is only 1.

this works now as expected

when i apply the randomeffector to the scatter object. i get a crash after some seconds.
should be reproducible. just open the file, start LV and drop the random effector in effectors tab.

no crashes with this version

crash after undo/redo import objects with mixmaterial.

also no crashes, but after redo the mixmaterial is empty - no submaterials. but at least no crash, i could live with this if you want to call this as a limitation.


another new issue in this version:
when i open the attached scene the octane scatter is active but the instances are not generated in live viewer. i have to deactivate and activate the octane scatter object or sometimes it helps when i move the camera but not always. then i can see the instances in LV.
