Sorry that I don't have access yet to test the demo version at the moment. I have the follow questions in mind,
1) Does octane provide any dressing function ? In case I have several shots done in maya, and I edit the materials in octane. Can I save these edits and apply to multiple selected objects in another octane scenes in one go ?
2) Will it support rendering using gpu of other machines in the networks soon ?

1. no yet, we're working on a material preset system for next releases
2. it already does, but for animations. you don't really need a network of machines to render one image anymore with a decent GPU. for animations, you can use any render queue manager software to batch run octane on slave machines, provided they have an adequate GPU and a display. (a command line version is in the works)

Yeah, you should install a render queue software. there are several around, one is free and it's called 'drqueue'.liu_0083 wrote:If we have 20 machines each with 2 gtx 480, do you mean that any one of the machines can render with 19x2 = 38 GPU cards ? It's important for us to make full use of resource.
You can schedule animations with it on your farm for rendering.

No, you can't. But i don't see the reason why you would need 38 GPU cards to render one image...liu_0083 wrote:Ya thanks. I've heard of drqueue before. Isn't it for distributed render only ? I was asking if it's possible to render a single frame with 38 GPU cards, as I mentioned above.
