I don't have a r15 unfortunately, but does the R12 build version not work in R15? I can make a R14 build, but I don't know if that helps.

can't we use instances instead of exporting?

when I export scene to standalone, can't I use instances instead of doing it in octane?

now that alembic is arrived, we have a new possibility.
we can export the instance objects with alembic and the rest of the scene with the classic obj exporter

cinema can export in alembic only the selected items, so you need only to hide them before using the marcus exporter and then, use an object group in standalone

yes, select a mograph cloner and export it via alembic with the "export selected only" enabled and import it in the standalone. the number of meshes should be equal to the number of cloners and the tris should be equal to only one copy of the object.
if the cloned object has more then one material, then it's useful to set the materials via polygon selection so you don't need to run a lua script for correcting the pins of the alembic node.

Hello you clever people
I'm having trouble with the exporter plugin. I have an animation with several clone objects - thats not the problem - the problem is i don't know how to set the exposure and all the things regarding the imager and the camera objects - witch of cause are attached to the old render target object. When i make a new render target object manually and attached the old imager to this and the old camera object it works fine as long as its the render target object that has focus - however when you render an animation it will always have the mesh object in focus and all my settings in camera and imager are ignored (that is the same when i adjust in the old render target) - Help would be VERY much appreciated
Regards
Arne
