Are they supposed to work togheter?

I have a scene in 3ds max, with octane materials, everything is fine but when I import into standalone, my materials don't follow. am I missing something? I'm new to Octane render and so far I love it!

Is there a possibility to also bring your cameras from 3ds max plugin to standalone?

Thanks!

ou..sorry, I've gave You false info before (don't use this so often myself =) You don't need V2!!! 1.55 is capable to export entire scene, simply press "F10" key while in Max, Choose "Tools" tab =) head to "StandAlone export" on the bottom : choose You directory & You get two files exported: *.abc & *.orbx - You can open just by dropping later into Octane Render Standalone & scene will hold all You materials & settings =)

I guess it's a 1.55 feature heh? I'm currently on the student 1.20 version (plugin & standalone) and there is no tools tab anywhere in the render setup options.

Might upgrade anyway since I now know it's something possible.

ou, sad to hear..I though 1.55 will be given to students when 2.x is out =) but yeah.. it's well worth an upgrade!
