R 13 and exporter

[ribrahomedesign]

I thing there is something not working with C4d 13 ,if i render a animation , it only renders
about 20 frames and then it stops working and i have to press ( cancel animation) and start again .
it worked fine with r12 i think.

Yes this has been happening to me too...silly me I didn't even think that it might be R13 specific.

@abstrax: any chance to have animated textures like the blender one does?

Would love to be able to render animations from r13!!!...

I'm currently working on the exporter mainly in my spare time and will have a look at it today. I'm also trying to add the export of animated textures.

Cheers,

I'm currently rendering an animation of 500 frames from R13 using the R12 build of the plugin and I'm currently at frame 75 and there are no problems yet. Does the problem occur always or only under certain circumstances? It would be great if someone could let me know how to reproduce the problem.

Thanks,
Marcus

This is the same problem we got with softimage since 2.46. If anyone has a troublesome c4d scene, please send it to Marcus. I'm currently using a app that closes down octane if it's been idle for more than three minutes (like task manager with a clock). It helps, but it's a little flaky so it's not the best solution :/
