Is there a working Octane to Blender script yet?

[MarkS]

Hi Greg,

No, I haven't tried to export .OBJ. I'm sure it works but I was hoping not to have to mess around trying to reproduce the camera angle etc. OBJ does not export cameras. My laptop, even though quite new, is not stellar that way. It would be a Big help if that were handles via the plugin.

Thanks,
Mark

I guess it's a bad/good news thing. Bad that it's not usable on Mac but good to know that I'm not that daft!

Thanks!

the error reported means python is not installed (i think).
i will have a look tomorrow on our mac and see if i can get the script working on the mac's in our offices.

Thanks Radiance. I just upgraded to the most recent version of Python for Mac, as I thought perhaps that might help but, alas...

Hi,

I did some tests and the script works fine on mac os X.

Thanks very much for the detailed instruction. I have managed to run the script after deleting all of the Blender dot files in my home directory. I re-installed Octane and Blender from scratch.
The script works perfectly now. I have a problem with the part where I need to add the Mac binary.
The install folder/directory does not have a path as the sample directs. (/Applications/OctaneRender 1.022b beta2.2b.app/Contents/MacOS/octane)
I created something similar without the .app as that isn't a directory path?
I created /Applications/OctaneRender 1.022b beta2.2b/Contents/MacOS/octane, but it's an empty command. Is there supposed to be a directory as such with some binary file? When I hit "Render" the file gets exported but Octane does not launch.
Has something run amok?
I also posted this on the page with the instructions.

Thanks,
MarkS
