OCM EXPORTER

[Interfaces]

TIG thank you for this plugin, it works fine, but it would add a function to export all views of the scene

[TIG]

I'm not sure I understand the question
A Scene only has one view associated with it.
A SKP might have several Scenes that you need to process in turn...

It does export the scene's view as the 'camera' data

• Menu File > Octane OCM Export... > Camera
  or Ruby Console type: OctaneOCM::Camera.export
  If options are available a dialog opens and you can choose from
  <Current_View>, <Current_Scene> or any other Scene tab-name listed.
  It exports the camera data from the SKP Scene into an OCM file
  suitable to import into an Octane OCS. The file is saved with the model.
  It is named thus "../ModelName[Camera_SceneName].ocm".
  Spaces and Non-ASCII characters are made into '_' in Model/Scene names.
  
  It includes:-
  
  eye [pos] [as xyz]
  target [as xyz]
  up [as xyz]
  fov [degrees]

It also can export the scene's 'sun' data

• Menu File > Octane OCM Export... > Sun
  or Ruby Console type: OctaneOCM::Sun.export
  If options are available a dialog opens and you can choose from
  <Current_View>, <Current_Scene> or any other Scene tab-name listed.
  It exports the sun data from the SKP Scene into an OCM file
  suitable to import into an Octane OCS. The file is saved with the model.
  It is named thus "../ModelName[Sun_SceneName].ocm".
  Spaces and Non-ASCII characters are made into '_' in Model/Scene names.
  
  It includes:-
  
  sundir [vector]
  longitude [degrees]
  latitude [degrees]
  day [1-31]
  month [1-12]
  hour [0-24.000]
  gmtoffset [0-24]
  northoffset [0-1.0, i.e. North-angle as proportion of 360]

You can then import those as nodes in an existing OCS file...

OK TIG, thank you for your answer, you know the plug in "render octane power tools" if you know what he is working with sketchup?
will see the site http://www.octanepowertools.com/
Tell me what you think?

[TIG]

Right now Octane Power Tools supports 3D Max, Blender and LightWave and Maya. Other packages will be supported very soon!

Reading between the lines it seems to me you want to batch export SKP scene-cameras and sun settings to do something similar - using a turbo-version of my OCM Exporter?

[Interfaces]

yes!!!,, exactly

[TIG]

I have just written a new fast batch exporter for all cameras and and all suns...
See its new thread when I publish it shortly...

Anyone who might be involved in it couldn't tell you, because they would almost certainly have entered into a 'Non-Disclosure Agreement'...
But you can be sure that there will be some interesting new developments over the coming weeks
