Should I export from Max to Standalone?

[BKEicholtz]

A previous, similar post prompted this question:
For an animation of a complex architectural interior, should I export from Max 2014/Octane 1.5 to Octane standalone?

This is the animation that I did in Max/Octane:

I think that I ran my 4 Titans for 40 hours. (Contributing to global warming, sorry)

Here are some additional considerations: I do use ForestPack Pro. Will those objects export well?
Are there any suggestions for the best workflow to export?
And, back to the original question - is it a good idea to export? - I would prefer the streamlined interface of standalone, but I need to set up the scene in Max because of ForestPack Pro.

Thanks! Brian
