Ok - I've go and give the plane a UV map and see if it makes any difference.promity wrote:It seems to me that this only works with objects that have UV.
Thanks.

Yep - it only works on objects that have a UV map. Cheers for the assistance.
What version of LW you use ?promity wrote:In general, I must say - the release is very stable. As soon as I figured out the problematic instances, Octane in a huge scene (12 million pure geometry and about 100 million instances) works flawlessly.
The Selected Objects feature in the IPR is especially helpful - I haven't used it before, but now I've found it very useful.
I noticed that in the latest LW (2020.0.3) instances are not stable

Yes, this is strange, since Octane works fine with some instances for me, but flatly refuses to work with others. Therefore, I have to create arrays from pure geometry based on cloned objects - since Octane has no problems with this. But if I make the same objects in instances, Octane instantly crushes. I have a restaurant scene - there is a cake cabinet and a bunch of sofas and armchairs. Each cake contains about the same number of polygons as a sofa or chair. But I can multiply sofas and armchairs as instances without any problems, but cakes, when trying to clone them with instances, take out LWs in an instant. But if I put these cakes together in the form of pure geometry, everything works as it should.

Now I use LW 2020.0.2 and Octane 2020.2.3.1 and turnoff Multi thread extraction because this function some time crache scene .... and I do not have any problems with instances and stability

Whenever I have crash issues with instancing and a specific object, I always go back to that object and check for crap geo, single points left over or overlapping geo from an unintentional copy and paste. This is even more so with purchased or converted assets.
Dont know if this is the case with your cake, but worth a look.

Hi All, i confirm that i get crash of lightwave with this latest version of plugin. Crash when multi thread extraction is enable with instances. if i disable multithread extraction , render IPR run correctly !
This on this old scene as exemple ( with lw plugin 2020.2.3.1 i have no problem )

If you can send me this scene it could help a lot.slv wrote:Hi All, i confirm that i get crash of lightwave with this latest version of plugin. Crash when multi thread extraction is enable with instances. if i disable multithread extraction , render IPR run correctly !
