Hello, might I suggest watching my quick video on this matter - figured it was easier show than explain how I was able to overcome this bug. Made with Version: 0.13.82 - and that is key. The latest updates aren't stable enough for use in daily work. https://youtu.be/vSXhSg0zqB4

hi fivebythree

so the trick is to create a octane material from sketchup material or?

thanks

edit
hmm can't find the 0.13.82 version - only 0.13.87 :-/

hi

i'm having this error for almost one year now - could this be fixed, so i can set the temp folder by myself?

i't annoing that simple material creating in skecthup is not possible.

as you can se the folder does exist (see attached image).

but in my system it is named:
\\tmsrv1\users$\brj\Octane\SketchUp\temp\su_textures

the path sketchup uses is:
////tmsrv1/users$/brj/octane/sketchup/temp/su_textures/
this gives an error

I have tried to test the paths with my file manager (servant salamander)
if i paste "\\tmsrv1\users$\brj\octane\sketchup\temp\su_textures\" into my file manager the folder is found
if i paste "//tmsrv1/users$/brj/octane/sketchup/temp/su_textures/" into my file manager the folder is found
if i paste "////tmsrv1/users$/brj/octane/sketchup/temp/su_textures/" into my file manager the folder is not found

so this seems to be the problem? "////tmsrv1/users$/brj/octane/sketchup/temp/su_textures/"

could this somehow be fixed or tested?

thanks
