Would you mind to explain your workflow in Octane to render Animations?
XP 64-bit | ASUS MARS DUAL GTX285 4GB Limited Edition | DUAL XEON X5570 | 48GB DDR3 ECC Reg 1333MHz
Sure
- Setup your scene in your host app, bake everything ( object position, rotation etc )
- go to your prefered frame start ( my case it was frame 80 )
- Export a test Obj
- Imoprt in octane
- Find your camera angle, play with colours and light.
- Press pause
- Start the tedious task to do the following in a loop :
- Export first frame in your animation as obj
- Relink the Obj file in Octane
- Press render button and wait till you got the quality you want
- Press screen capture, and make sure its your whole monitor that is captured
- Press Pausse in the renderer
- back to host app, scrub 1 frame forward
- Export Obj
- Relink Obj
- Press render
- and so forth...
So you will end up with a stack of screencaptures that you rename to 01,02,03,04,05 etc..then import to Post application.
I rendered 40 images, then interpolated that with timewarp in aftereffects to around 360 frames. I didnt do a 1:1 pixel/vector lookup as that is time consuming, this is why some edges drift at points ( looks like local heat waves )
My scene took 34 seconds to export each time, so as soon as i hit render in octane i went back to host app and made a new export so it was both exporting a new obj and rendering to save a bit of time.
You can also fake camera moves like this easily. Write a script that flips the relation every object has in relation to an animated camera in your host app. So the output will be a static camera and a moving scene.
You can for example do this with a car pan with a 3d camera perspective ( not just a big image zoom then pan ) This situation works for sunlight as you are moving the objects on a parallel to the camera so the shadows whont move.
Shadows would move if you did a turn table, but you can chose to ignore sunlight and do it adn it wont look weird.

[gk] It would be easier for you if you had a license you could just hit the save image button
you could just hit the save image button Kubuntu 9.04 | Nvidia Gainward 9500 GT | Intel Core2 Quad 2.40 Ghz | 4 GB RAM
Awesome result !
Its cool how simple objects + physics + dof is mindblowing every time
The lighting is also very good

Uh, i see.
You were rendering every frame one by one.
So Octane isn't really rendering animations yet, right?
Will it be possible to render animations with an upcoming version?
