"setting octane materials...."

[Jorgensen]

when i apply an octane material to the scene - "setting octane materials" is announced and then i takes for ever?

is there a special clever way to add materials to avoid this?

thanks

Hi,

I have been unable to duplicate your issue. Please confirm the plugin version in use, and the steps you are taking. What kind of materials are you using? Does the material apply eventually or does it not apply at all?

hi azen

i can't reproduce the issue here at home - i might be caused by a large model, and when i add a glass material like "glass fake falloff".

sketchup does get back to life...

i don't think you should use time on this issue. probably model related.

Hi,

Thanks for bringing this issue to our attention. If this becomes an issues again down the line, please let us know.

hmm the problem still exists - if i add a octane material to a smoothed face (800 faces) it takes for ever.

but if i ad the material to the group it's fast.

Hi,

This could possibly tie into a solution that is currently in progress. I will make a note to add this use case to testing to confirm that it has been resolved.

Hi,

The next release is currently being tested, and should be released soon - hopefully tomorrow at the latest

Hi!

To inform the developers, I'm using the latest release but this problem persists. The material does eventually apply but it takes 1-3 minute to apply. Obviously makes it hard to test things out.

Azen I think you posted a response in the wrong post.
Wasnt this about materials?
Your reply is for "skatter render only" post?
