I need to know before buying if the animated textures are supported by the plugin.
Which of these two works for DAZ Studio 4.8 (64-bit)? And work with Octane render for DAZ Studio.

Animated Textures Script for DAZ Studio will work in Daz Studio 4.8.. I can't tell you about Octane render as I don't know how that works with Daz Studio.
Someone already succeeded in Animated Textures with any of the 2 products that can be created in DAZ Studio and work with the plungin OC for DAZ Studio?

What can you tell me Face_Off, works with that DraagonStorm said?

I can't see how the plugin could update the texture with each frame? One solution is to render the object/surface that will use the animated texture as an alpha and then composite this with the animated texture. This won't be affected by the scene lighting though.

Yes, I can't see how the texturemap would be updated. If you want to use animated texturemaps - export to ORBX, load into Octane Standalone, and then edit the Image node there to setup the animated texturemaps (using Octane 3).

At some point I will look at implementing animated texturemaps - after all the Octane 3 work has finished.

I read on the DAZ forum it is sadly a limitation of DAZ studio apparently that all the animated texture plugins need a script, OrDS would need to access this script I suppose too, things like Carrara and Poser with inbuilt animation of textures would not have these issues.
Matanim by Casual will not work with iray AFAIK either
