Hi

I am applying a series of frames to geometry, the sequence needs to start at specific frame but I cannot figure how to do it with Octane.

In max, it's straight forward but Octane doesn't have the same parameters in the bitmap rollout. When importing the sequence, I have also set the sequence to start at the correct frame but, it ignores this for some reason.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Yep, it's not working in Octane. I had to make "empty frames" in After Effects to fill the space in order for the sequence to start from a certain frame in Max.
Very time consuming and stupid. Plugin is version 3 already , but things still do not work as they should.

Hi Suv

I did the same thing, adding blank frames before the animation was meant to start but for some reason the timing didn't work so, I really need the timing functionality in max/octane to work. I have sent a question to Otoy so hopefully they will get back to me with a solution.

I'm on 3 aswell.
