Good morning all, I've been using Octane for a little while now but have yet to import a LW scene into Octane Stand alone. I was wondering if any of you can link a "how to" guide for LW to Octane. I've been using the renderer strictly with the F10 option for animation and I just wonder if it even makes a difference whether I render from LW or Octane stand alone?

Cheers,

Alistair

Currently there is no way to export a scene from Lightwave to Standalone (you should save all objects as .OBJ files, resurface them and so on). But near all features available inside the Standalone are already in the LW plugin, and the performance is the same.

thanks for the reply Juan! so I'll just keep doing what I'm doing and keep it all in LW :)
