Clear Cache?

Hi,

I have a show stopping problem of clearing the cache. I change textures in poser, but they don't
update to Octane. { yes I have auto refresh on, even hit it on and off } Even closing poser and reopening the file doesn't seem to fix.

help!

Are you changing the texture map in the Poser material or the plugin?

I'm changing jpg texture maps in poser.

Then I also changed them in the plugin . Plugin didn't seem to recognize the change either.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding. Are you MANUALLY changing all the texture changes in the plugin? If so, a much quicker way is to select the 'reconvert' (right menu option) in the plugin to re-import the changes from poser all at once.

Samhal,

You saved the day! Thanks. Yes I was manually doing it - didn't work. But the reimport
file seemed to do the trick! { is that the same as "reconvert" ? Im still on 1.17

thanks
