Also had a strange issue. I rendered a Sequenz (0-125 Framerange). It only rendered till Frame 121 and said it was done. The Frames are namend 0 till 121, but it skipped some frames so Frame 125 is named 121. During Rendering i disabled two Cards. Is it possible that this caused the issue?

The Text says this value in the Dirtnode can be 0.0 but the minimum is 1.0

I suggest re-rendering the animation, and not disabling the cards during the process to determine if that is the problem or not.

This is an Octane engine issue - which I will report to OTOY.

if i change the values of the Rouded edge node i need to update the scene to see an effect. Also if i have an image applied to an Arealight and click "create octane emitter" the image is not included in the resulting emitter material. Also "General Visibility" and "Sampling Rate" are not taken into account.

Thank you for your work!
Updating Round Edges nodes pin values seems to be updating correctly in the next version of the plugin. As for the create.octane.emitter command not bring across any images, yes, that is a limitation of the current create.octane.emitter command. Visibility settings worked for me, as turning of the parent light also turned off the geometry emitter.

He's talking about the "general visibility" channel on octane lights. eg. if that is set to 0.5, the mesh emitter created should have general visibility set to 0.5 as well

There seem to be quite a few things you dont convert correctly with emitter creation, so it would be nice to fix at some point

Hi, Paul,

unfortunately the plugin for Octane X does not work in Modo 14.0v2 I am on a MacPro7,1 with a Vega II Duo and Catalina 10.15.6.
In Cinema 4D R21 everything works. Strange. Am I doing something wrong with the installation or is it a mistake?

Hi. This looks like an Octane render engine issue rather than a plugin issue, so you will need to report it to OTOY via the Support button at the top of this page, or in the OctaneX forum.

Thanks

I have updated the installers at the top of this thread with:

2020.1.4.162
- Compiled with Octane 2020.1.4
- Fixed potential lag issue when selecting item in Modo when the Octane Viewport was closed
- Added Kernel->Animation->Refresh Non-Live Meshes When Scrubbing The Timeline. Ticking this option also forces non-live meshes to be reloaded each frame when rendering animations

Thanks
