Hi Notiusweb,
I have tried with an abc .orbx, exported from c4doctane, greater than yours, without problems:
IMG_0406.jpeg

Maybe there is an issue in DAZ while exporting in abc more than one character :roll:
Because I have also tried with a simple DAZ scene with one character, and it has worked as expected.
But I have not large scenes in DAZ for testing, sorry.
Do you mind to share the scene with the DAZ devs for further investigation?
ciao beppe

Not with an alembic though. But I have seen this many times in the Standalone version when loading an OCS file even on very simple scenes. Just click in the render priority to get the buttons back.

:D Oooh! Good one, Zay!
Thanks 100 Octane Coins for that.

It worked if I click on Render Priority and actually select the mode, it unlocks all the buttons. And to correct myself it was an .OCS file exported from Daz, not an Alembic.

Thx Beppe for taking a look for me!

Is this because of some setting maybe I accidentally set in Alembic import preferences, or would this be some type of genuine issue?

It seems to have something to do with the Render Target, because in these greyed out scenes then even if I create a new Render Target, it is also with all menu items greyed out, except Render Priority.

Thx.

Yes, I have noticed it, too, but could never reproduce it when I was trying to debug it. If you've got a scene that lets you reproduce the issue, could you please send it to me? I will then have a look at it as soon as possible. Thank you.

HI We tried to solve this problem with Paride
There is a major bug with octane specular material and diffuse kernel. When specular material mesh is touching another mesh clear material becomes black Please otoy fix this bug. pathracing and AO works fine

Is it possible to let the Material map work with abc files? That would be very useful.

Thanks for the report. This will be fixed in the next release which I hope to have out by the end of the week.

Unfortunately, that's not possible at the moment, because a geometry archive (Alembic scene node graph) is actually a (hidden and) fairly complex node spaghetti inside of a node graph and material map nodes work only mesh nodes, but not on complex scene graphs. So for now, you would have to create a copy, which is not too bad resource-wise, because the two copies would access the same loaded file data.

Thnx for the answer!
