OctaneRender® for DAZ 3D Studio® beta-testers wanted

[Philemo]

I'm very interested by your plugin.
I'm using DAZ studio as a bridge between Carrara and luxrender and I would love to be able to do the same with Octane.

hello there..
im able to discover and test your renderer for daz.. its very interesting.. if it works i may purchase too. thanks..

- the more advanced user base is very protective of the reality exporter that sends Daz scenes to lux render. I have been in a few discussion on the topic of gpu rendering and seem to get very touchy on any option other than the reality exporter, and usually it has nothing to do with quality or speed of the renders.

maybe true, but that's subject to change i did use reality and lux, and was sold to octane (literally ) when i did the first test last year. the quality is nothing short of lux (even better imo), the speed of octane is matchless (lux with opencl gpu rendering is still way slower) and having a tight integration is that far superior to any exporting plugin in terms of workflow and speed, it even can't be compared

also i don't think that animations should be a problem for an integrated plugin because it is just a frame-forward and start rendering again. exporters of course have a lot more to handle to render animations but an integrated renderer should do this by nature (and fast)...

Good thing I pointed you towards it then

All the best and bright future for Octane!

Id like to add my name to the list of applicants.

Ive been using Daz Studio Advanced/Pro since version 3 appeared and purchased Octane specifically for importing Daz Studio scenes.

Im fully aware of Daz studio's texture heavy rendering and what requirements regarding map placement in the shader surfaces allows easier/quicker exporting of Daz studio assets.

Theres a few renders on this site and on Daz's site where I have given Octane credit.

I would like to hear about what is necessary to Beta test. I'm interested and have DS3 and DS4 (32 and 64) Windows.

[katura]

it all stated in the first post:

We need 5 people who own a copy of DAZ Studio 3 AND 4, latest version each; all packages (Free/Advanced/Pro) will do, currently for MS Windows(TM) platforms only - either x32 or x64, and who are experienced with its use, as well as being experienced OctaneRender(R) users.
These people will need to be established/familiar forum users from our community and will have to sign a non-disclosure agreement prior to becoming part of the beta group.

so it seems you´ve allready got what it takes

I am interested in beta testing the Daz Studio plugin.

I am a professional software developer with 25 years of experience.

I have been using DS4 since its release in September 2011. I do not own DS3. I do have a large content library and I am mostly interested in human figure rendering.

I have been using Octane for 4 months.

I can commit to giving you 15 - 20 hours a week.

I hope you will consider me.
