Import Multiple Scene from Revit to standalone

Hello New bee question, I prefer working in stand alone and exporting mesh
from Revit to OC is fast. Not a Revit Expert and I feel comfortable using standalone
at the moment.
My workflow will be:
1.Export base model from Revit.
2.Create a place holder in sketchup an drop
higher poly Furniture's and other entourage
light planes etc. and export OBJ to OR.
My question, is it possible to export multiple
Scenes from Revit using OR plugin?
One solution that I'm thinking is to turn off Revit mesh
and export individual views???
Thanks for your Help. Cheers

Hi - yes, in OctaneRender for Revit, start rendering a View, the rightclick the plugin Settings tree and Export to OCS, then render the next View, Export to OCS, etc etc. In OctaneRender Standalone, load each OCS. You can also build your materials in OctaneRender Standalone, save them to the LocalDb and use them in the Revit plugin.

Thanks Paul,
That is how I exported my Revit model to standalone with selected Scene.
Can octane export just the camera parameters without Geometry similar
to Tig's OCM batch exporter in sketchup?
What I did was exported another Scene copy and paste just the View/Scene node's
to the main OC file which is OK, I just have to wait a few second to export a large file.
Thanks Again.

No, sorry, the entire scene is exported.

But it's a good idea...

For sure it will save a lot of time i.e. saving 10-15 images

I could add a "Copy Camera to Octane Clipboard", and you could then paste from that clipboard into Octane Standalone. Would that work for you?

Hi Paul,
I am still finding my way around Revit and Octane applications.
We could always try your suggestion.
Cheers

Do you mean
"Copy Camera to Octane Clipboard"
? It will be in the 2.23.1 release - available in a few days time.
