Octane for Unreal Engine 0.42
Changes:
  • Updated to Octane 2020.2.3
  • Added MediaTexture support.
    *Only ImgMedia works in the sequencer, FileMedia desyncs when not rendering in realtime due to a known bug in the Unreal decoder.
  • Pointlights now use Octane built-in pointlights.
  • Added Dynamic2d texture support.
  • Moved plugin updating to the end of the unreal frame, should be faster and more accurate when converting the scene.
Fixes:
  • Reworked spotlights
  • Exit Crash has been fixed
  • Fixed issue where dragging new objects into the scene will trigger plugin updates
  • Fixed material conversion issue with float4 min/max functions
  • Removed unnessesary error/warning log messages
  • Fixed issue where rendertarget would not get automatically created when starting octane
  • Fixed issue where the camera would think it has changed, when it didnt
*Displacement has been turned off completely for now. Will re-enable when bug has been fixed in the next Octane build

Hi, Is it possible to use a media texture that has an alpha channel?
I'm looking to place pre-keyed actors into a scene so have an exr sequence and alpha channel.

So far the background is just showing up black. Can anybody help?

I have added alpha for media textures to the next build. Thanks for pointing this out.
