Hi!
When i export from max to octane my object are at first not visible, i have to zoom in in order to see them. I have looked around the forum and did the following:

1. my working units are Metric->Meters
2. "obj export options" are set according to http://www.refractivesoftware.com/forum ... f=21&t=362 (can i get to this optionbox without at first manually exporting a OBJ?)
3. i've checked the focal depth and roll (ive tried with and without)

hmm i notice that the scale is at 0.025 when i click "Export OBJ/MTL only". I change this to 1.0 and click export and after that i click "render" and it exports again.
Still tiny tiny, but i notice that when i choose "Export OBJ/MTL only" the scale is still at 0.025.
???

After changing "System Unit Setup" to meeters aswell I am getting 1.0 scale in the export but still the objects are so small i have to zoom in to see them in octane. Bit strange, I've searched around the forum and I seem to be the only one with this problem scaresly enough. :D

Is it too small when you dont change the settings? when you leave it at 0.025?

Anyway try this version, it has the auto-rescale off. The regular version rescales the scene when you press render
