Current LiveDB Download?

[JasonArcher]

Hi,

Is there an updated download link for LiveDB presets to install into Modo? I'm trying to get my hands on some of the materials for using Quixel textures in Octane and it appears the LiveDB files I have were packaged prior to the Quixel material release...

Hi - copy and paste the material from Octane Standalone as per https://youtu.be/P2JjcrXNQ6U at 3:45mins.

So are the old instructions no longer valid? Moving forward is the copy/paste method described in the video the new process of getting LiveDB mats into a Modo mat?

Either way will work - however the current Modo LiveDb available for download is quite old, so if you want the latest LiveDb use the NodeGraph method described in the video.

Thanks, I am running 10.1v2 and Octane Plugin 3.032b and the download gets to 45% and crashes Modo every time. Here is the command log after the crash if this helps. Thank you

This appears to be a bug in Modo - it is crashing when incrementing the status bar. I will need to do some more checking to see if it happens with Modo901/2 too. In the meantime, I suggest using the method described in the video tutorial.
