Same here, I only get mesh without materialsApophis wrote:Hello,
how can I export Material too.
"Add Export Material" is activated but I get only the mesh in octane with an other name "undefined" as the exported and without the material.

Blank.ocs is created by user. It is a donor ocs file. You can use another ocs file also but that would take up more video memory.rcallicotte wrote:Thanks Tugspx. Following the directions you gave me for all my questions, but I think it might have something to do with the OCS file. Should this be created by your plugin? I tried BLANK.OCS and it gives the following error.
There was an error parsing the command-line arguments:
Couldn't read argument value from string 'NaN' Argument: (--cam-fov)
Material export button is disabled in demo version. Previous version had all materials mapped to a single image and I was called a few names for that, so we decided to not map any material and allow the user to do so themself.Jadawyn2011 wrote:I've just tried with "updated" version.

Well, I was interested in this plugin mostly to ease material export; geometries, lights and cameras are the least of my problems. So, if I can't test this function, I really don't know if I'll buy the final versionTugpsx wrote:Material export button is disabled in demo version.

The full version does map the materials and include bump and normal maps.
You have the older version without material zone support, please download the newer version from first page.rcallicotte wrote:I tried further to see if I could understand what is happening. This is one thing I've discovered - if I have multiple objects (four, in this case), then the first object is asked by Octane about saving it and that object is put in whatever texture I choose (each object requests which material) and then this object's texture material covers over all of the other objects' texture materials. This means no objects underneath this highest branch [the object that is the only one asked about on Export] can display their textures, even though these objects have distinctly different textures than this highest object in the Octane tree. It's like in Photoshop - the top object is coloring everything under it.

The Demo version creates the material zones but do not export materials, does not have control of daz light setting, proper IBL support.
It is ment to simply show users how to transfer the scene to Octane for rendering as a sample. Materials, Cameras and Lights are fully supported in the full version (coming soon).
