OctaneRender for Carrara 2.10.0053 [Test]

[Sighman]

Sighman, if you have two cameras (eg: camera 1 and conical) then one thing I see off the bat is the following..

Camera 1, use set focus picker and click on are in the distance,
switch to conical camera, use set focus picker just in front of the camera,
switch back to camera 1 and your focus remains as last picked with the set focus picker (ie: right in front of the camera rather than in the distance as 1st set), Any way to get each camera to 'remember' set focus picker settings when swtiching between cameras?

Hope that made sense!

When setting focus from the ORVP the Camera does not remember the settings so switching cameras does not load the DOF information. If you set DOF from within Carrara then the settings are remembered. I will look into this some more...

[Sighman]

Well done and thank you. My testing so far.

• Added support for Movie TestureMaps. (I'll leave Orion_UK to test this, but that's excellent I'll be using this for sure - thanks)
• Added ability to switch between cameras in the ORVP (drop down as well wonderful!)
• Integrated with Octane SDK 2.10. (This isn't live yet - so you are AHEAD of the standalone? Amazing.)
• Render Target is now saved with the Scene (.car) file. (Do you mean the file to be rendered to is saved? It doesn't remember it with the scene for me)
• Added Copy Image To Clipboard button to the ORVP. (Great!)
• Added Render Passes support (2.1 feature).
• Updated Octane Turbulence shader (2.1 feature).
• Added Time To Complete on ORVP stats bar (as in the standalone). (This is something I didn't want to nag about but makes life easier and matches the DAZ interface so thanks)
  
  Won't be testing the other stuff for a while. Going to give that info on my crash/bug report from 0051 here instead as I'm loving the new features. Give me a little time..

2.1 is available in the Release Candidate Testing Forum: http://render.otoy.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=33
The Render Target Settings such as Imager, Kernel, Post Processing, and Render Passes are now saved to the scene.

Are there any key frames on the background? Try removing them if there are. (no keyframes)
Does the problem happen if you move the timeline from within Carrara? (yes plus it will randomly not work first time into the scene as well)

Please try the following:
Find the octane_log_flags.txt file in the OctaneRender extension directory.
Enable the apiRender flag (remove the leading '-').

I can't save this. Access denied. Tried closing Carrara no joy. Can't see any permissions on it (not an expert in this though). Closing down machine now in case it's some kind of "deadly embrace" - haven't used that expression in years . [EDIT - It's not that, it's permissions].

The file should not be read only. It is likely you are running your OS with UAC enabled. You need to run notepad with administrator privileges. Locate notepad in the Windows 'Start' menu. Right click on it and select 'Run as Administrator'. You should now be able to edit the file.

I would not worry about it too much, like you say once each cameras focal settings are set up this is not really a problem Going to spend some more time looking at all the other goodies now..

Thanks again, great work

Ok Sighman

Today's been frantic elsewhere, I hope to spend some quality time on Octane tomorrow and I'll get the release candidate update. Thanks a lot.

[orion_uk]

Sighman - thanks for the update, some great additions to the toolkit!
Orion - very creative and excellently done!

Thank you muchly PhilW

[Tugpsx]

Thanks for the update, now the television will work well in Carrara.

Have you noticed an issue with needing to press manual reload if you want LRVP to update after changing/toggling VISIBLE in General tab?


I have made some changes in that area. I did not confirm that toggling 'visibility' is still working. I'll make sure it's fixed in the next update.

2.10.0052 still requires a manual reload for 'visibility' toggle changes to take effect on LRVP Sighman.

Also, Is an animated sequence using Export scene data (ocs) working for you in 2.10 standalone?

Thanks. You told me about that before. I'll try to remember for next time.

Ok that diagnostic is constantly writing out, so I can't get a totaly clean cutoff point, I think [13:38:51.770] is where the next frame starts. It lost the background image on the step forward - it was ok on the initial opening of the octane viewport.
