Hello,

I was curious if the software can hide the visibility of the HDRi map so that I have an image that easy to composite or will I have to create a matte in my 3d software?

Is it possible to use more than 1 light? And is it possible to use the light and hdr map or can the renderer only support 1 or the other right now? Overall I'm impressed with the studio type of lighting in stills, but I worry about not having enough control and using this in VFX/Animation feature work!

I've been trying to find the Maya to Octane script to use for the animation contest.. Is this available to the public? I wasn't able to find it... :(

Can I set the scene size to a different unit? I imported an obj and my zoom, and pan rotations was barely moving.

Hi,

Some of these requests will be in the upcoming beta 2.3 (alpha mapping etc...)
The rest in beta3.

I think you should best await beta3 before considering octane for use in a film production pipeline...
