Hi,
I'm very interested by this plugin. I'm a blender user, and I wonder if it's possible to export animations out of blender and render them with octane?
Thanks! :)

Does Octane support Fbx format?

hi abarts3d,
yes, animation exported from blender can be rendered in octane, you would need the correct settings for it and there is also an export script that can help you with this.
Octane can import obj files and currently fbx files are not supported
cheers

Great, thank you for your answer!
Where can I found this script? I would like to test it before buying.
If it works well, you can be shure that you'll have a new customer! ;-)

Ok, I found this:

can you confirm that there is a script for the Blender 2.63?
I don't find any info about this...

thank you

the information for this would be under the licensed customer area. so far the newest version of the unofficial export script was release on 25 march this year, which makes it pretty updated. one of our forum members has confirmed that it works for blender 2.63, but you can send a pm to matej just to be sure.
cheers!
