Particle from realflow to c4d octane

I have imported some foam particles from real flow to c4d via Real flow particle importer and i used an object tag on top of of it, but it wont show up in render?
Any help?

Do you see particles tab activated in object tag? How is your object setup? Any pictures pls.

Actually very simple setup, just a RealFlow SD importer (which has my Real Wave Data) and RealFlow Particle importer (Which has my foam data in .bin format)
and an Object tag on top of my RF particle importer but no particle tab activated in my object tag.
And no foam shows up in my render view

It's not a type which is supported by particle engine of plugin. Anyway you can use a way as using standard geometries.

Thanks for your help dude, but I don't understand what did you mean by using standard geos. Actually
I am looking for a correct pipeline between RealFlow and C4DOctane and specially for Foam rendering on top of my RealWave Geo.

Can we use rpc or bin sequences from Realflow? I don't have a particle tab when I place an Octane Object tag on my Realflow Particle Importer. Is there an existing workflow? Or are only meshes supported?

Are there work arounds for rendering Splash and Foam from particle sequences using OctaneC4D?

Did you ever find out how to render out particles from Realflow C4D into Octane? Currently have a setup of liquid but need the particles to show a level of dirty ness to the water which the particles would help with.

Unfortunately I had to render all my splash and foam in VRay and composite onto my Octane render. It took forever since my PC is built for Octane and not VRay. I was however able to render mist using the Octane VDB Object. It would be awesome to have a full Realflow > C4D > Octane pipeline. I don't think it exists yet.

As a side note, you can mesh your core fluid in Realflow and render that in C4D/Octane.

Hello, Does a pipeline exist yet for this issue? I would love to render foam in Octane. RPC files
