I'm only at the beginning stages of learning this, so please forgive my ignorance. I've done a fast read of the plugin manual.
If I'm in the plugin, I can select a material and export it to a file. And I can import same. Such an item is a .poe file (something that I saw for the first time today). In Octane StandAlone, I can save nodes (and effectively materials) by creating .ocs files.
How can I import into the plugin a node or collection of nodes that were used in the standalone (ocs files)? Or to ask the question in a more brutal way... is there any way that I access the materials that I have already built and collected without re-downloading them from octane live in the plugin?
It's been a long day for me, I ended up buying Poser Pro 2012 and spent most of the day getting the library to work. Then finally I get to play with the plugin and I start to realize that I don't know how to access stand-alone materials (OCS files).
Also, a funny thing happens when I hit return on LiveOctane trying to download a material. Sometimes it sets the Poser Animation on and then I have to stop that before the Octane Window works for me again..
Grumpy, but trying... Piet
