What textures do you use?

acc24ex wrote: can octane plugin handle moving objects from 3dmax viewport to octane window without reloading, Ive seen the 3dmax 2013 iray do that

I am waiting for instancing.

the textures are all in .tga diffuse and opacity opacity loaded ok, diffuse not

heres a capture of the standard map, and then converted to octane

the opacity was loaded fine octane image texture loaded and applied, the diffuse part wasnt processed correctly - the ivygrower uses some crazy material setup (you can download the free plugin from guruware anyway to test it..) and it linked the standard material to diffuse.. maybe it was the rgb multiply, it looks like it didnt recognize that particular map, so it left it like it was in standard, still much easier to convert, just had to create the octane image texture node and load that one texture in it

- still getting some issues with the material previews as you can see sometimes its all blacked out, maybe because I use old saves - will check it out, sometimes works ok sometimes blacks out

edit: yes its the rgb multiply that didnt convert, the converter expects a texture instead it got the max multiply material (which I never use) and when I changed it to standard texture it converted it fine - it should at least be noted , there are probably other cases where it could fail like that - it is a quick fix anyway after a quick analysis

thank you for the new release.

why Backburner is not supported?

For me is crucial to have enabled it because I have to start several animations. Now I got 2 four GTX580 systems.

It's crucial to have ies lights with target point too.

Please add a stereoscopic rig. Now I'using the xidmary plugin costraining two Octane cameras over it. But if you try to render from the xidmary cameras the system will hang, you have to reboot the computer.

Вылетает при просчете анимации или во время работы с проектом?
