OctaneRender for LightWave Initial Overview

[juanjgon]

Hi,

It could be also useful to allow to specify a total render time, and let the program refine each frame in multiple iterations, until this time is up.
This way, all frames would have the same quality... but it would need to cache on disk the current computing state of each frame to be able to resume it on each iteration.

Do you think this is possible ?

Actually I think that this is not possible, but we can think about it in future releases.

One technical question: do you gather that the object/deformation motion blur will be enabled with this plugin ? ( i'm afraid not ....)

Just i don't want to insist but the answer would be highly appreciated...
Thanx

As soon as Octane will support MB (for both transformations and deformations), LW plugin will support it. I hope we can see good news about this topic soon

Plugin is currently under development. I want to release first beta early next year.

Now I am working in the lighting system, using custom LW lights. It is one of the most important things to get a nice workflow with Octane inside LW. I hope to show something about this at the end of the week.

Can't wait.
Looking good!

This week I am working in the plugin lighting system. In LW, Octane is going to have a complete custom light source that can support all Octane emission nodes. This plugin can create at render time any kind of geometry for the emission node (at the moment I have light shapes like point, linear, quad, etc.), and user can configure the emission type, the parameteres, add a image or a IES file, etc.

It is a bit complex, and I need a few more days to finish it ... it is the heart of lighting system in Octane scenes, and must work fine. Of course all works in realtime in the IPR. This weekend I am going to record a new video to show how it works, it is amazing
