OctaneRender® 1.025 instancing preview test build

[matej]

Please add the reload mesh button & reload .csv file buttons asap.

Also, re-browsing to the same .obj file doesn't seem to actually trigger a reload of the mesh? if I change the .obj from another application, I get the same thing as before when I try to reload it in Octane. I have to exit & re-open Octane, then it shows the changed mesh.

Yes, I confirm that this would be great !

Kirill Voronik made ​​a script to get the coordinates

Hi,
can you explain what to do with the downloaded objcoords_0.1.ms to make scattering?

We completed the exporter!
will publish soon! after tests

a temporary condition! original must be in the coordinates 0

It would be nice to support special characters in names like test_instance_cube1.mtl for mtl-files.
The obj-file loads fine, but the mtl-file isn´t load/used.
For scenes with multiple files it is usefull to seperate about the filename which file is what...

speaking about scenes with multiple files....
Is it possible to make an animation for scenes with multiple obj scattered and grouped?
Is that possible? I have acces to sketchup and cinema4d, but I was wondering how to make an animation after having the scene setup by using different obj's withou using a basic 3d file like sketchup, cinema4d, 3dmax, blender or other.
Greetz,

Would like to report a strange bug if not already reported.
The 'Geometry Group' node gives a strange result if it has more than 2 inputs.
When I'm adding e.g one scatter node to a 3d input of it, the light emitters don't seem to light anymore.
So, in this version it should be used with only two inputs.
My scene is rather simple, 200 flipflops in stand for an event.

I still have problems with freezing render viewport (GTX 580 3GB). It freezes (but Octane still works) when I add a "Placement" and connect it to a "Geometry Group". My temporary solution is to save my work and reload it. I tried installing newest drivers - no use. On the 304.79 driver whole system freezes - reboot required. So I installed back the 285.62 driver.

using a two input geometry node with a simple ground plane as first obj and an other object used as instance scattered on the second input , I got white strips on the ground plane on the render of the geometry node, whilst the render of the ground is correct with the obj mesh node of the plane selected.



Octane freeze confirmed here too, with Nvidia driver 301.42.

Greetz,

Animation isn´t possible yet.
The meshgoup node must be active/selected after opening the scene via the commandline to render an animation with scatterd meshes but Octane selects the exported project mesh and render it as single...
