Do you click on "Render" in the export dialog? Using that, the camera gets exported to Octane. At least it should.

i think is a scale issue ( you are working in millimeters), the camera is exported but the position is wrong ;)

thanks bepeg4d, i tried to change the scale into meter but that still could not solve the puzzle
but atleast it did brought me closer to the object which makes me easier work with
instead of searching for a dot and scroll that to my face :lol:

The export is always supposed to be in meters and that's what the export plugin converts to. Please make sure that in the OBJ import preferences of Octane the import unit is meters, otherwise it won't work.
