is there a way to only export the camera animation from maya to octane and reuse an existing octane file ?

i read the Max to Octane plug-in does that so there's not a lot of wasted time waiting for Maya to export a whole new identical obj file.

this would obviously only be useful for a fly-through.

we need to standardize this and add it to our 2.3 guidelines, so all plugins have it identcally and our shared documentation is correct.
bazuka -> let's post this in the plugin dev thread.

Thanks Bazuka
will do. Any chance you have had a chance to look at my earlier post re changing depth of field in an animation?

Thanks
