Hello mate, in Octane4SU you don't load Octane materials that way.
You can do it 2 ways.

1st option - Load material from LiveDB - if you upload your personal material to the web they will be there too.

2nd option - If you want to use materials that you have in a project from Standalone, just copy them to a empty StandAlone project. and then load "import from .ocs". I did a Standalone file only with the materials that i like, and then when i need them i just load the OCS and have my favorite materials.

I think Fuzzy have in is roadmap the LocalDB option, when he manage to do that you will have the LiveDB + LocalDB option to load materials.

cheers

Hi Interfaces,

Yeah, I think ".orbx" extension is not supported right now, but I'll add the ability in the next build.

As a workaround for now just rename "scene.orbx" to "scene.ocs" and do the import. It will work.

Cheers

UPD:
OK.. I checked that, it doesn't work :) I'll add the ability to import .orbx materials and .orbx proxies really soon.
