I know its alfa and its bugy but its faster ! I tested same scene :
in 0.7 ver i get 1.87 f/s
in 0.8 ver i get 2.12 f.s

I wannt to ask you poeple, when u create a new material in noods how do you applay it on specific object ? Is there some kind of applay command or what ?
How do you change scale of texture on material ?
can someone tell me what are the commands on Octane icons ? What they do ? Cos there is not tool tips... (screen shot would be great and that should do people who work on help files....
When you connect 2 nodes how you disconect them :) ???


What programs do you use for creation OBJ files...that works ?
I tryed archicad 13 - i only get one object and one material...not possible to get different materials but import works !
Rhino 4 - works but not as it supose...Some configuration blocks and crash down Octane. Creating OBj in rhino you can get same scene lets say 3 MB and 30 MB
second one will not work and it will block import to Octane.

I have problems like others with reflections and i cant get materials right, suddenly if i set one object to relfections other become dark, so moving nodes sometims help and sometimes dont

keep on good work Rad....

thx

Hi,

Make sure you have the correct units, as i said here: http://www.refractivesoftware.com/forum ... f=17&t=361

Just click with the material picker and change materials in the node inspector.
I would'nt recommend using the node system at this time.
