sometimes, on large resolutions octane needs to wait for the renderpass to finish and this can take up to several seconds before it exists...face wrote:I have the check...radiance wrote:I think it might be good if you do a check of some sorts to make sure octane has quit.

I use the PROCESSENTRY32::szExeFile from the Tool Help Library to search a running octane.exe process.
First, export & render the scene, then check if running. If running, loop with a 100ms delay, else go to next frame, export and render again.
But i think this is to fast, so that Octne can´t shutdown correctly.
With a delay of 500ms it works.

Then the process should be running when Octane do that?radiance wrote:sometimes, on large resolutions octane needs to wait for the renderpass to finish and this can take up to several seconds before it exists...face wrote:I have the check...radiance wrote:I think it might be good if you do a check of some sorts to make sure octane has quit.

I have make a new 64bit addon, that should show you the info.El Burritoh wrote:Face, about my Softimage problem, I'm going to have to try something else. When I replaced that dll and launched XSI, the Octane Export option didn't even show up, even though the plug-in was still installed. I uninstalled it and re-installed it, retaining the old dll, and it still didn't show up. I'll try a couple of things before I post back, just to make sure I've got my ducks in a row.

Here as a addon, this should be work...Gabba wrote:Same problem even with the last .dll it doesn't see octane even if it's ay that it's installed =(

For rigid bodys, it doesn´t work correct while the calculation of the simulation is ever a little bit different so that the frames doesn´t match.
For that you should freeze the animation.
For Pointclouds, you should use the write to chache function, when the addon is out
I found that, while Octane like to crash when i render a animation. About 3-5 times in 100 frames.
Maybe i can catch the freezes from Octane, kill the process and send the same data again to Octane, so that you can render a animation in one time, without to render skipped frames while Octane crashed.
