Here is a stand-in version. This is not at all official Refractive software, it is just something I threw together while waiting for the real version, so don't blame them if it doesn't work or works poorly.
Known issues:
- You have to save your file before you can render it. The exporter will create a OctaneExport folder in the same location as your document, and if the file isn't save it won't know where to write that folder.
- It does not handle orthogonal views well. Parallel views seem to be OK, just as long as the camera is not point directly along the world X, Y, or Z axis.
- It is Windows only. I have not tested it on anything but Windows 7 64 bit. I am reaching into the registry to try and find the Octane executable path, I don't know how stable that registry key is between different flavors of Windows, so it may bomb out.
- The exporter will match the current aspect ratio of the active viewport on export. Octane render width will always start at 1024 pixels. Right now it doesn't pay any attention to the Rhino Render size.
- Camera up information is not currently ported over, so if you have any roll in your camera it will be lost
- Sun information is not included
- Any Bongo information is ignored
I'm sure there is all sorts of stuff as well that I has slipped my mind as well as bugs I haven't found yet. I would say treat it gently, but it should work. It seems to be going pretty well here and is a nice bridge until we get the real thing.
