Wrong orintation on ICE particle instance

[Jack-Jack]

Hi all,

I have made some tests with ICE particle instance and each time the particle instance have wrong orientation in Octane render.
How it is possible to correct it?
Especially important for mbFeatherTools (Michael Buettner).

Best regards!

Yes, i can confirm it.
Can you try this dll?
Make a copy from the old dll and copy the new one in the addon folder.

Hi!

I have made some tests with new dll and it's still works not correctly.
With new dll particle have global wrong orientation (opposite direction).

Hi!

It works correctly now, for my previous test , thanks face!!!
But, i have made some new test with simple ICE scatter, and particle orientation wrong again, if align to normals.
If no align to normals, it works correctly.

I have attached pictures and a simple scene.

Thanks face for your work and patience!
