Hi, in Octane Version 3.06-TEST4.1 for c4d, it's mentioned there is now Token support for MP. I'm not able to make that. Could someone give me an explanation?
Thank you for your time.

Hi aoktar, thank you for being there. I have a simple scene and i'm using the take system (but finally i'm not sure this is what we talk about) with 2 different views. I try to obtain 2 different files for beauty and 2 different files for MP but the second MP always replace the first one because of a unique name. Is it possible to have automatically different names for MP files?
And by the way, in the MP window there is a "seperator" field which has appeared. What is it made for?

PS : Ok i found the way to do that by using the C4D MP saving tab. But is there another way?

You can use like in image and video. But don't use c4d's save section for passes. That's why don't: viewtopic.php?f=30&t=60477

It seems that in OS X, the file path only accepts absolute paths, not relative paths that would look like "./pathname". Also, if I wanted to use a token to create a directory "/pathname/$prj/$take", this will create an extra folder $prj in /pathname.

Can anyone else confirm this?
