This is the alpha release, so any issues are expected. Please report the bugs here. For feature requests and other conversations - please use other threads or create a new ones...
Currently the only work on implementing a support of new features that still popping up in all the new 3.X rendering engine releases and bugfixing of already implemented ones will be going on for this plugin. If I will have time in between of this and the other urgent projects I work on - I will be adding some new features of the plugin itself...
Changes of the 3.3 version
- Implemented Standart Blend material conversion.
- Fixed animation rendering bug.
- Uninstaller now leaves tbb.dll in place.

Please, if you decided to post here:
- Please only report a bugs here. For feature requests and other conversations - please use other threads or create a new ones.
- Give a meaningful description about what you think is wrong and how to reproduce it (in addition to screenshots if any). I can't solve the "one screenshot" rebuses without any meaningful description...
- If you use Google-translator to post here - check please what you got before posting it, and edit it before posting. Ask your friends to check it if you don't speak English. These threads have got overfilled by Google-translator balderdash that is impossible to understand.
- Don't post here the reports about how Octane rendering engine works - use the Octane Standalone forum sections for that.
- If you like to discuss something about the plugin - create a separate thread, don't flood in these testing threads please.
- If you see your post silently deleted from here - you have violated some of above TEST-versions threads rules. These threads need to be kept clean - because they are directly used as the source for fixing and improving the plugin.
