There are already export plugins for Sketchup and C4D, but both are only available, if you are a licensed customer. When the final version 1.0 of Octane is finished, it's planned to supply the demo version with the then finished export plugins, too.

Cheers,

They are also still under development. While they do work rather well, they're not finished because Octane hasn't reached 1.0 yet.

The sketchup plugin is quasi finished and available to licensed customers, and it works very well.

Guy's, the end product in the gallery looks amazing and as a Sketchup user I'm always on the look out for a new renderer but quite simply unless the exporter plugin becomes available for the demo I can't buy your software. I really, really, really want to try Octane out (and in particular the compatibility with SU) to see if I can justify to my boss spending money on the package, but until I can cleanly use an exporter with the demo I'll be still using V-ray and co. Please even if it's a Beta exporter just make it available to the SU community and at least bring some more attention to your software as the results as I said look amazing.

You could export .obj from sketchup pro, or take a external plugin.
You get many plugins as trial version.
Export settings are in the manual:
