First-off, a big thanks to Juanjo for his incredible support keeping Lightwave viable with the Octane Render plugin:)

That said...

Is there a plan to fix the lack of PRmotionblur in instances (at least when they are attached to particles) or is the SDK just not going to support it at all... ever? This is a very important feature that is seriously needed in order to make even Lightwave's weakest of particle systems a viable tool to use in Octane. Even when we go thru the trouble of converting real particle systems from other packages, our only format to use is .pfx so our hands are truly tied here...

Any information (or even hopeful guessing) would be greatly appreciated at this point:)

Hi,

As far as I know, the only problem available with the instances motion blur is related to the motion from the base objects mesh deformations. This is indeed a limitation of the LightWave SDK core. I'm not sure if we are talking about the same issue here, probably yes, but if you want to share a scene with this issue, I can take a look at it here ...

Thanks,
-Juanjo
