Great news!!!
I had no hope for this already. It will move Octane to the whole new level for Blender users and I'm sure I'll be using Octane much more often with such integration. I'll definitely buy this plug-in once released.

Great news... i was upset with octane... It`s will be a new energy for blender users!!
JimStar,
will your plugin decrease render times like Octane Power Tools?
I.e. "export/import the static models in your animation once"
instead of for each frame? Decreased render times are the most
important factor for me.
Can you give us a rough idea of when the plugin will be released?
<>3 months?
And the cost? <>$100?
OPTs are $80 US, which is reasonable considering the render time savings (not to mention the
other features), but will wait for your plugin if it is competitive in features and pricing, and will
be available reasonably soon.
Thanks!
Later....
didn't realize this plugin is like those sold by Otoy for Maya and Poser which cost 99 Euros.
My only question then is, will it export/import each frame, or just once?

I would gladly pay for it now to be able to use it while it's being developed (much like it was with octane from the start). It looks quite usable in the videos.
Exporting and opening each frame really takes out the fun when trying to render animations.

I am hopeful that you might have already at an alpha or beta file available. I saw the video and announcement of Octane being applied to Blender but the original post seems to be a couple months old (since Sun Jan 20, 2013 10:16 pm) I was very interested in the Blender plugin and so I made the purchase but maybe I should of waited?
Is there a plugin available that I may of missed?
Thanks, Kurt.

There is an exporter plugin, but we havent been able to get our hands on anything integrated into Blender yet.kurtjn wrote:I am hopeful that you might have already at an alpha or beta file available.
