Rhino Plug-in 1.022r01.01

[SamPage]

Attached is an update which attempts to prevent Octane from crashing on open. It adds one additional command, OctaneClearOptions. Please run this command on the first run of the plug-in, it will clear out the any options which older version of the plug-in may have written.

Thanks,
Sam

I'm still investigating the UV issue. I can repeat it sometimes and not other times, so I am trying to nail down what is going on. I have a feeling though that the fix is going to have to wait on the improved *.obj exporter.

Thanks, odd enough I had to try it using Rhino 5 Wip as it was crashing again in Rhino 4 and now it is not, can't find the 'Clear' option...

If OctaneClearOptions is not coming up as a command, then the wrong version of the plug-in is loading. You can check by going to Rhino Options -> Plug-ins, select RenderOctane and click Properties. It should list the version as 1.022r01.01, and list three commands, OctaneClearOptions, OctaneOptions, and RenderOctane. It will also list the path of the plug-in that is loading, so if something other than the expected version is loading you can check in this location for errant older versions.

Let me know if you have issues,

Thanks, Version loaded is 1.022r01.01 but only 2 options are showing LeftMouse > Render Octane and Right Mouse>Octane Options and in this last I only have the Octane Path and Samples.


AS we are on the matter I suggest a future option that could ease the pain of Manually renaming the exported obj for Future renderings.

As it is now everything is exported in a folder inside the same directory were the Rhino is opened, but like me I guess many users will have a single folder for most of their models,
in this way the Exported Obj will remain the same name overwriting anytime of an export.

I guess it would be awesome to actually Name the exported Obj in order to avoid OctaneExport.obj to be replace by mistake, in case someone (it happened to me) does export a new scene and forget to copy or rename the old obj for future renderings (the Ocs file does call for it).

Cheers

As it isn't a "everyday" command and rather just fix a previous mistake kind of thing, it isn't exposed on the toolbar, you have to type in OctaneClearOptions.

It is coming.
