Hi Paul,

When I save out a octane material using the command "octane.exportmaterial," I can successfully save out as both formats. However, when I try to import the files into a different scene, I'm getting the message "error loading octane/modo material."

Do you by any chance know the problem?

Thanks!

Hi - can you pls provide the information requested at the top of viewtopic.php?f=34&t=55078.

Thanks

Paul

Thanks. How are you importing the saved OCS/ORBX back into the scene pls?

I am just typing in the command octane.importlivedb. The error shows up with both files type.

Thanks. I can replicate this problem, and it will be fixed in the next release.

Greatly appreciated! That button would also be nice I'll be happy to provide any "art" you may need for that.

If you post the graphic here, I will add it.

Hi Paul,

What types of file is the best for these icons? PNG or JPEG?

Also, thank you for fixing the bug with import. I just tried it, and there seems to be another problem. It only imported the "base" material, no texturemap or node settings. For example, a material using the liveDB Aluminum as a base would simply import in as the base Aluminum.

I think I have resolved this in the next release, which I will post a pre-release of in the next few days.
