Octane exporter for C4D version 0.03

[ribrahomedesign]

thanks for your support
i did some testing and it works so far pretty well with UVW mapping .
one more think.how to export a glass material with transperancy and reflection ?
if i select transp. and refl. in C4d ,in octane i get a glossy material with no transp. ?
thanks again

Hmm, good question. This is probably an exporter bug. Do you have an example of a Riptide export that contains transparent objects that get improted as transparent objects? If yes, could you please post it here. Doesn't have to be complex. I'm just curious how the material looks like in MTL format. The specification wasn't really clear about this.

Thanks,
Marcus

Just checked the Octane exporter guidelines: What happens if you set the index of refraction to a value > 1.0? Does it then get transparent?

Thanks,

Right
(IOR > 1.0f) & (Transparent color != #000000) = specular mat
(specular value < 1.0f) || (specular color == #000000) = diffuse mat
all others, glossy mat.

@ ribrahomedesign

you must "bake" the texture and object in C4D and then export

look at my picture in top of my post, it is a uv texture in octanerender
there is another way to export uv?

Yes there will be with 0.04. I'm trying to automatically convert the non-UVW mappings to UVW mapping. This will have a lower precision, as you can't 100% replicate for example a spherical mapping with UVW mapping, but if the mesh resolution is high enough it should work good enough. I hope 0.04 will be available in the next 2-3 days.

Cheers,

Thank you very much abstrax for this plugin. I have only tried a single scene and it works prefectly so far. I'll be sure to post any bugs if I run into them.

Again, good job!
Exporter works fine.
In addition I found a small plugin to split selection, it's handy.
