Hi guys,

I'm re-rendering a short fight sequence from my feature Killer Bean Forever with Octane. Man, I'm loving Octane. This is one shot from the sequence.

Sorry about the low youtube compression:

I'm planning to re-render in HD soon enough, but I need to figure out some things with the maya plugin first. I'll post questions in that section.

This is a temp clip, which I will take down once I get a cleaner render. The background is the Ministry set by Stonemason from Daz3d. I took out the window panels on the ceiling to let the sunlight in.

samples up to 1024 per frame. Render time was about 2:40 minutes on my gtx480. Render res was 800x450. The only thing is the maya to octane conversion per frame which took quite some time. But this I'll ask in the maya plugin section also.

Hey, Jeff! Great to see you here! I remember you from the old Animation:Master days and going off to bigger and better things! You worked for months on the original Killer Bean IIRC.

you should consider setting up a ram drive for the OBJ export/import to speed it up.

Jeff,

It looks darn cool man. The animation is superb. The background looks neat too.
It looks like a underground combat, very dangerous.
The only thing, if I might say, is that the lighting looks like happy sunny day,
not threatening. The weather (hence the lighting) could dictate the atmosphere overall,
as it is one of Shakespeare's greatest tool to setup the story in the beginning.
But, this could be part of your story that does not translate to the clip, which might make
sense overall.
Still, pretty neat.
