Hi Guys ... sorry for my english ... I did several tests to export from sketchup to octane and better results for the textures and patterns I got them as attached pictures. We also send a little test done with these settings.
It 's only two days I use octane, but already I love it :D

hi,

I'm an architect, not a rendering expert, and I only use a really small percent of the octane software features but the results are comparatively high in respect to other software I've tested before.
the only thing I really need badly is the glass shadows mapping.

that's the sketchup OBJ export way that I've set down after some different tryouts.
the original sketchup model is quite rich of geometry and texture but it work fine.

at only 1.3ms/s, in texture envirronment, it take 30 minutes.

bye....

thank's radiance,
I know from other post in the forums that your staff is working hard on that issue.
is it difficult to put a 'memory' button of the last few inputs, giving the opportunity to explore different setup of the scene and easily come back to the original one?
I'm impressed by your realtime answer on all the forums.

best regards,
andrea

We're working on a more generalized system that can handle this, coming in the next version.
