I'm testing octane right now. Really like it.

Found one bug:
- In Active Render Mode I have switched from Camera type from Thin lens camera to baking camera and unity crushed

Also I've one question:
I really like Unity Post processing stack - especially Color Grading option to final Grade your image. At the moment as I can see it doesn't work. Are you planning to support it - to color grade your final image even more ?

This should be possible through the render to texture option in the PBR render target. This takes all your Octane AOVs and feeds them in real time into a live Unity texture. This texture can be sent anywhere camera render target textures are supported - e.g. material maps, lightmaps/baking and g-buffer/ PPFX stack.

Hi. I installed octane for unity using the installer and most things seem to work, but I have two questions:

1. Changing the "tiling" property for textures in the Unity "Standard" shader doesn't seem to work. Is this a known bug?
2. Octane materials aren't saved, at all. If I make a few glass/curtain materials (that I couldn't find a way to do in the standard shader), they're all gone when I reload unity/the scene. Every now and then I get an error saying something about "XML not created, canceling save" or some such. A bug?

Also, when loading the water/teapot orbx, I get no materials, might be connected to point 2?

Thanks.

1. Yes, this has been fixed internally and will be released in the next build. You can follow the progress here
2. This is also a known issue, which will be fixed soon.

Hi,

I tested the Unity plugin for a bit on my secondary machine. When I tried to do more test on my primary machine it told me the license is in use and I had to release through website. But I haven't exactly owned an license yet. It's blank on my subscription page. How should I unlock the license in case?

Thanks!
