Arbitrary Keyframes

[electric_eric]

Hi,

I did a render of a 200 frame animation and have a load of frames that contain an error where the glare/bloom ramps right up randomly. If i play my sequence through it looks like there are lots of cameras flashing/taking pictures of my objects.

I went back and when i rerender the frames as single frames the error has gone. Very strange.

I also did another f10 render to test and this time the flashes were on different frames than before.

I wondered however, if arbitrary keyframes are supported by octane as i cant seem to get it to work. I want to render a random selection of frames and octane simply ignores that and tries to render the full 200 frames.

Is this not supported or maybe planned for the future?

Thanks

Sorry, this is an issue with LW SDK that doesn't allow arbitrary frames rendering in the external render engines. Anyway perhaps I could add this feature using custom settings in the render target. I will add this feature to my list for the future, but currently it is not possible. You can render sequences using a frame range or an inverse frame range, and steps also work, but arbitrary or keyframe modes don't work.

I will add this feature using a custom system along the 2.x cycle. The LW SDK doesn't support it, so I need to design a way inside the plugin to have this feature.
