FOR YOYOZ / BUG REPORT / linked instance groups crash

Sun Oct 30, 2011 9:33 am

I can see the two spheres now in blender and they export fine to Octane. Please try your side with plugin v1.11 I posted a few minutes ago

Now going for the particles...

Particles also working, but you must add a 'ParticleInstance' modifier to the object that is the actual particle, and link the modifier to the object that is the PaticleSystem. Render option under the particle system is only for Blender's internal rendering. I played around a bit with your file, added 'hairs', flipped the normals on the emitter, added some randomness, etc... and attached the result back so you can have a look.

They don't look like hairs but this can be tweaked at the expense of insane memory and CPU usage

Yes the linked group now exports without problems in 1.11. Solved!

And now I get it how to properly export PS.

Solved!

Thank you for your work & help! It's much appreciated.
