Hi,
in the next version of Octane will it be possible to stop and restart the rendering? For example...I start the work, after I stop the rendering and switch off my pc. The day after I reopen the work and restart from the point where I stopped.

bye

Hi Fabrizio - I have looked into implementing this, but it is not trivial to determine that the Rhino scene is in the same state as it was when the Octane render was first started - so there is no way to know that the scene the plugin loaded into the graphics card is exactly the same scene that was saved for later restoration. The simple solution is to export to ORBX, then render in Octane Standalone, where you can save the render state, and then restore the state the next day and continue rendering.
