As the title says! When trying to import the obj into octane, It gets to the end of the loading bar and Octane closes. Everytime without fail. I am running, 64bit Ubuntu 10.10, 4 gb of RAM, Gtx 260 896 & a 9800gt 1gb, Amd Quadcore. If needs be I will send the .blend and the .obj to help figure out the problem. This Is quite frustrating.

Hi,

You're probably using the wrong OBJ export settings,
there is more information on export settings in the Resources forum.
Maybe post a screenshot of your OBJ export settings so we know what you're doing...

Thank you very much msciwiarski! seems to be working a treat!

May I just ask though, what is the effect of disabling the edges export option?
