I love Octane standalone, the interface is a joy to use and renders are fast and pristine.
Congratulations on the overall robustness of this pre-release ,and the amazing Alembic capabilities.
So good that the slider bug crash was solved from 2.13 .
I still don't know How to output render an alembic animation,
I guess I'll have to dig into the Lua script capabilities,
Hope is not complicated . :)
To render an Alembic animation you can use the script in this thread. This script is part of the recent release candidates. You can run it via "Script > Render Animation".

I get an error, I'm using Octane 1.32

Code: Select all

[string "-- helper to pop-up an error dialog and optio..."]:4: Expected number for key "type" but got nil instead.
EDIT: the error happens only if I use the script, but if I use the menu option to render the animation, it works... :?

There are some scripts installed with Octane, and this script is one of them. So you can delete the copy in your script directory. And once the stable version is out, the scripts should not break as often anymore.
