Great work so far.. Does it support FibreFX for hair/fur rendering?

FiberFX is a plugin without SDK, so it is not possible to have access to it's internal data to allow render the hair using a external render engine. Anyway I can support in future releases the render of two-points polygons as Octane geometry.

Mmm I like how you keep alot of the native LW workflow when using Octane. Very nice progress Juanjgon! After being a LW user for since amiga days, I abandoned it after the "Core" fiasco in favor for Softimage. But you make we want to start using LW again :) I will keep a very close watch on this, oh yes!

Juanjo - it appears you and otoy will be releasing your plug as beta first (after testing) -- is this correct?

And does that mean the initial price is likely to be 99 euros?

I suppose that the release is going to be made like with the other plugins, but I have no confirmation about this point yet.

Some features of the new release of Octane working inside Lightwave, like the new physical sky, the postproc node or the orthographic camera.
