OctaneRender® for Poser beta WIN - build 1.16a [OBSOLETE]

[ch0pper]

it look like your trying install it to poser pro 2014 dir? not 2012 dir?

Thanks Ch0pper but i am not, I browse to my PP2012 folder (64bit) click ok and then the installer adds \Poser pro 2014 AFTER!

I am sure I am pointing the installer to the right location

If you look at one of my images it says: C:\Program Files\Smith Micro\Poser Pro 2012\Poser Pro 2014

V-odd!

Thanks for your reply tho

The installer adds the \Poser Pro 2014 string automatically. Delete this from your path and you should be fine:
C:\Program Files\Smith Micro\Poser Pro 2012

and not:
C:\Program Files\Smith Micro\Poser Pro 2012\Poser Pro 2014

Thanks Miru

Your right, I needed to delete the `extra` additions put there by the installer!
The installer was adding it automatically (as I said above)..that's real annoying!
Browsing the correct folder and clicking OK/next should be enough! I should not have to browse the correct folder THEN have the installer incorrectly correct me only to have to correct the installer AGAIN!

Deleting the extra info added by the installer did indeed work, Thank you

LOL> Yea, I did the same bone headed move to. After staring at it for a few seconds, a light bulb came on. DING! Manually change the directory path.

Oh the shame of it all

2 things:
1. the material order e.g. in a V4 is all messed up and
2. "Replace all skin materials of this figure" replaces the textures, too, which is not so good when having different textures (head, torso, limbs)

And 2 more:
All objects include now the "Preview" material which is pretty useless when other materials are present and
On changing a texture image with "Select from the file system" the preset directory to choose from was the origin directory of the actual image, which was a surprisingly useful feature. Now it's somehow the last used directory - not very fitting in the most cases.

GLOSSY_INDEX = 0.0 is not working.

EDIT: Paul, have you disabled the OctaneDefaults.py totally? If yes, why?

I had an item for thought. A render Queue would be nice, so I don't have to open each poser scene manually. Also, when the render starts, it's really grainy until about 200 -300 samples. Just wondering if this is normal. Thanks.

[ch0pper]

grainy until about 200 -300 samples. J

yep thats about right!
