What's your C4d version? And who I am here as for you to investigate the case?

And could everyone who write here their C4D versions?
Hi

I am using C4D R24 because I have not upgraded to Monterey yet and the C4D plug-in is not compatible. Mac is MacBook Pro 15 (2018) running Mac OSX Big Sur 11.6

Plug-in is Studio PR11

So you got the same issue on a Mac ?
That's interesting.

My S24 works perfectly where my R25 just doesn't... and I'm literally using the same setup and preferences on both.

@studioyf I just want to clarify that it is an added frame issue which places duplicate frames into the ORBX animated export. This creates the jerky animation. It’s almost like a time based 25 to 30 issue you might see in After Effects, but it’s not frequency based just odd frames here and there. I have tried exporting a scene inside C4D from Octane Dialogue and also by using the Terminal to export from a UI less version of C4D. The UI less one had no issues but the other with C4D open did. The guy that made the video suggested that the viewport in C4D might be contributing to this issue as it plays back the animation, which is logical but I can’t attest to that. I might try a viewport less export from C4D to test that theory. But I do have confidence that there is an issue.

There's new option in render settings to export ORBX. DON'T FORGET to disable the image saving in render settings! Use "Ignore rendering" for quick export.

I seem to be getting pretty good results by rendering out with the viewport closed. I do however get some texture malfunctions where the diffusion is off on a few frames. But at least its not jerking.

Please show use what's happening. Here's we are recording what you have in rendering, different way. It may be render problems if you have something.

Dude this works beautifully, and exports much faster as well.
I tested it on my tricky scene and it just works perfectly.
Testing on other scenes now.
