Well, it was just a question, and I could hear 'no' if you think it inappropriate. I've already heard no twice now to putting the Blender 2.49 settings there, so I'm used to it.

There are blender 2.49 settings there...

Max 2010 settings

Thank you very much for addressing this issue, 3ds max actually crashed with default settings... BUT, has anyone found a way to export proper materials? Meaning, if we could find material settings right so when imported we could have glossy materials, specular etc... For now, if you export a mesh with a standard blinn with specular, when it's imported to octane it effectively turns the material "specular", that is, transparent or glass-like. Even more, if you import to max the chess scene that comes as an example with the demo, and re-export to Octane, the materials go glass!

Is there any good way to prepare and export a scene with all materials in C4D 11.5 ?
In one of the videos available in Octane website there is plugin named Riptide, but when I use
it Octane crashes.
And when I use the Wavefront exporter in C4D I loose all textures and the different objects in the scene
get the same black material when I import in Octane and I cannot manipulate them separately ...

Any help ?

Thanks

from what i know, you should use the riptide pro exporter, and use window or unix lineendings (not mac lineendings), it's an option in the exporter's preferences.

thanks radiance, but I installed Riptide Pro and there is a collection of settings to use and when I used the settings presented in the video ( italian tutorial ) Octane crashes and don't open the .obj file.

Any idea ?

Thanks

can you post a screenshot of the export panel ?
i'll tell you what settings to use then.

PS: there's one somewhere on the forums, let me search.

there's one i found of the non-pro version but it's not %100.
can you post the screenshots of it's panels, and i'll tell you how to configure it.
