how to you move a scene to another computer ?


i copied all my textures over
copied the LB database from the user/appdata....maxon/pref with the oct.dat


now all materials with textures will not render properly
they all seem to be linked in the material dialog window but the orb that shows what your material looks like will not show the texture even thought the texture can be seen on the model in the cinema 4d window// though it will not render in octane Live viewer correctly

some of the textures in the project info box will not show a pathway but when u click to load them it takes u directly to the texture directory with the texture so seems to be fine
when u say reload it seems to reload but the material window orb will not show the texture

pic showing material with texture not being shown in ball - showing in preview cinema4d win but not in live viewer octane


using 2.21 version cinema4D v16

probably some materials was not your project folder, maybe on a texture path. use "save project with assets" command.

what seemed to be happening that if the texture wasnt in the exact directory as established by cinema4d as the texture directory it wouldnt work. I had to pick the texture and let it copy it to the directory it wanted to then hit reload a few times to get it to work

seems like a bug to me or a limitation - in cinema u can have a texture anywhere
