We are happy to inform everyone that the OctaneRender for Carrara integrated plug-in, developed by Sighman (Simon Guard) is ready for testing in a closed beta. The phase will take a few weeks and when it's done the plugin will then be released as an ongoing beta product. We'd like to set up a small group of 5 beta testers to help us test the new plugin product before we release it.
Beta testing candidates should have extensive experience with Carrara, as well as being experienced OctaneRender standalone or any of its plugin editions. These people will also need to be established forum users from our community and will have to sign a non-disclosure agreement prior to becoming part of the beta group.
Please see the OctaneRender for Carrara preview post at http://render.otoy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=36332) to see how it looks so far. It currently supports Windows 7 & 8 preferably 64-bit, and Carrara 8+ (64bit Pro preferred) from DAZ 3D. Please note that parts of it are also written in .NET so interested parties should have the .NET Framework 4.5.
If you think you have what it takes, and would like to participate, please reply to this thread and tell us a bit about yourself and your experience with Carrara and OctaneRender.
5 participants will be chosen once there are enough applicants in this thread. In return for your help in testing the new product, you will receive a free copy/license of this plugin, which you can keep when the beta testing period is over.
cheers!
