I wanted to use an animated exr image sequence for a water displacement texture. I was able to point to it using the texture node, but when I tried to render, OctaneServer complained that it couldn't load the texture. This works in standalone and renders ok. Thanks,
Jason

Hi Drawfun,
Thanks, It's just a simple animation of a bowl with a plane in it for water. I have an animated water image sequence in EXR format that I'm using to displace the surface with. I just tested it again with 17.1 and I get the same error, although I can export an ORBX file and it works fine in stand alone. It appears that I can not use EXR images for displacement in the plugin. Here is the error message:

Hi grimm,
It works under my tests. Here is a demo scene. Could you please check it on your end? Thanks.
The exr files are located in the same directory. The naming pattern is 1.exr, 2.exr, 3.exr ...
Cheers,

Hi Drawfun,
Thanks for looking in to this, but I'm still getting the error.
All I did was to load your .blend file, set the view port to render, and then I scrubbed the timeline to move through the frames.
