Hi,
I'd previously asked about the Daz plugin, and got an answer that Stereoscopic Panorama isn;t supported, and I'd have to export to standalone Octane.

Seeing how nicely Octane is integrated in Poser, I'm wondering if the Octane plugin in Carrara supports Stereoscopic Panoramic camera specifically.
I saw the screenshots on the online Carrara Plugin manual and while it says (and shows a screenshot) Thin lens camera has stereo, there is no mention or a screenshot of the settings of the Panoramic camera showing a stereo option.

Is it implemented?
Thanks.

hi Cly3d,
you won't see it in the current the demo and manual which is still based on 2.17 (the current stable build of the Carrara plugin at this moment),
but it is being implemented in the development builds of the plugin since v2.22
(development build is now at 2.23.x) More here.

Thanks Abreukers and (Daniel from Cust support) for the quick replies.
I'm still learning the whole Carrara interface, but this is a very promising workflow for artists who arent tech savvy with higher end software like Maya.

It's good to see a software company not resting on their laurels (Lightway/maya..etc integration) and instead looking at making their product compatible with diverse CG content production tools.
Eagerly awaiting the Aftereffects plugin too.

I've currently used the Poser plugin for one scene in my under production "VR novel" Dirrogate. (the woman on the balcony)


and here's a render from what might become the last scene - again, rendered in Poser (assets not mine)

Now, if you guys were to ever develop an interface for iClone... that would open the flood gates for High end visual content creation.
Currently iclone has a -b-a-d- terrible interface solution to Indigo Renderer which makes Indigo look bad for no fault of theirs.
