OctaneRender™ Standalone 1.24

[cfrank78]

Hi Reoland, Hi Thomas!

Played with 1.24 for a while now. Looks good.

I found out something weird. As an example i took from livedb organic/wood/bamboo weave! Basically this material has no transforms so i added in the node transforms in (projection in, was allready added). When i use box projection, the slider of the bumb/normal does work. when i use mesh uv mapping and use the added transform tab (scale), the material is perfectly mapped along the mesh, but the bump maps dont work anymore!

I hope i explained it clearly. I added a pic for explanation! Maybe i do something wrong, if so, please tell me what!

Kind regards Chris!

Can't get 1.24 to run.
I get the splash screen, and then nothing.

We're sorry to hear that. Which OS are you using? After the splash disappears, is Octane still visible in the task manager?

thanks,
Thomas

I am using XP Pro service pack 3.
After the splash screen disappears, Octane is not visible in the task manager.

I just played with 1.24 and I have two comments.
1. Awesome work guys: the alembic scale preferences is exactly what is needed to scale things correctly. Thanks.
2. There's a problem with texturing when applied to alembic files.
In the first case if you apply a diffuse texture to the alembic file with a bitmap texture applied it comes out black. If you use a SSS material like for example kayze's skin it comes out honey colored. For reference you can see what it's supposed to look like when applied to an .OBJ model with the same materials applied at the same scale.

I have included a compressed .rar file of the appropriate files so you can test.

Blender is still broken using Lionel's exporter. I was hoping that the update may have fixed this.

I am the only blender user that is trying to use Octane 1.2 onwards? If not then how are you guys getting it to work when it fails 90% of the time for me.

Hi, testing 1.24 now and have problems with some files.
With this file one GPU failed and environment texture is not loading.
1.23 work fine.

Cheers, mib.
