Hi there

yesterday i purchased a license for octane for LightWave. Now i'm playing around with it being totally happy with the results so far. I use to make high resolution renders (e.g. 6000 x 4000 px) for later compositing in AE or PS. How do i do this with octane in LW? When i set the lw camera to the desired resolution, i got the IPR windows spread all over my two monitors. Is there a way to have a e.g. 800 x 600 px IPR window while rendering a 6000 px render?

Thanks for any help! :)

Check the plugin options panel. There you have the IPR size options (default, camera resolution and custom resolution).

But also, render with F9, remember the P in IPR means Preview.

Yes, of course. For final rendering use the F9/F10 keys (like the native LW render engine), not the IPR.

Ah ... that makes sense. I'll try that. Thanks! :oops:

Edit: Works for me. Everything fine!
