Beta 2.2 RC1: SoftImage XSI plugin testing thread

[face]

Hi Face,

Could I make a request for the support of nested instances?

I can email you a scene for testing if it'll help.

I can try it, also send the scene

Thanx alot for taking a look at the problem Face! I didn't know if it was Octane or the exporter, so I needed some pro help
Now I hope Radiance can fix it.

A info of the coming version.

The next version will include:
*Particle colors
*Strands with colors/textures
*Automatic save the path of the Octane executable
*Export only camera data
*And a little gimmick that i will show soon...

That's good!!

When is the next version?
What XSI shaders will be compatible?

Thanks for your work.

I have a little bit trouble with strands.
Without that i have it running under SI2011 64bit.
I don´t know if i should wait for the new Octane with some new options to export or if i make it compatible to the other versions without strands.

I used the last XSi plugin to export to Octane 2.2, then saved an OCS and opend in the 2.3 pre release. It works.

For still images you must say

Hi! Thank you for the plug-in Face, it's amazing. I just wanted to ask, and pardon me if it isn't the best place to do it, is there a way to keep Octane away from focus, so it stops popping up each frame?

EDIT: Somehow the emitters don't export when using the OCS option. Am i doing something wrong or it isn't supported yet?
When i'm using nodes i'm getting the nodegraph.cpp error, and without nodes emission settings switch to null emission.
