Well! This is the error I get when I try to load the ORBX file (just when I click on the text "Load ORBX"):



What's the problem this time?

Hi - are you running the latest version of the plugin? http://render.otoy.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=42587.

No Paul, I'm with the stable..I'll try the 2.22 version. Thanks!

Hi, sorry for reviving this thread. But having the lastest build from the plugin and standalone I'm still not able to open an ocs or orbx file. I always get this message:

Error loading ORBX File <path>. Either zero, or multiple disconnected MEsh nodes were found.

I thought this to be fixed... Do the scenes habe to be specially preparated? Do I have to group or join something beforehand? The rendering of the object works flawlessly when done separately.

I can import obj though, but I want the finished model with all materials on it.

Thanks

Hi - it's exactly as per the error message. You need one Mesh node which is not connected to anything - which is then used as the proxy. So disconnect the Mesh node from the GeometryGroup and it will work.

So easy, thanks!

So this means, that I always have to import the ocs into the standalone first to disconnect the mesh and then resave? Couldn't the plugin handle this by its own or is there a reason for having it this way?

Yes, this could be done - however this is a very new feature, so I wanted to release the most robust solution first, and we can tweak it from here

Ah, I understand. It's a very very cool feature btw, importing .obj files isn't really so much helpful if I can't have the octane materials, so good job for adding ocs/orbx. Of course being able to do it without detour would be very nice, too-

Cheers

This sounds good...
