I'm still working on this feature, but it is taken longer than expected because the plugin architecture was not ready to support several Octane objects from a single OBJ node (in this case several Volume objects, one for each group). In any case I hope to have it ready early next week.

Thanks for your patience,

Thank you for the prompt response and feedback!

Glad I'm not alone ! Juan Is really great about maintaining the houdini plug in.

Oh yea you're definitely right about that! He' been an absolute wizard for us over at Reel FX!!!

Hi,

I'm still working on this feature, but I've found serious issues with the current plugin architecture to fully support it so some more plugin core code refactoring is needed before have it ready. To don't delay the next plugin build with the Octane 3.07 test7 core, probably I'll release a new plugin build later this week without this feature, to try to have it ready for the next build.

Thanks again for your patience,

Hi,

Finally, this feature will be available in the next plugin build, that will be released later this week with the final Octane 3.07 core.

Thanks,
