Hi Paul

I am running a second computer with revit plugin at home.

Is there a way to take all my materials with me (in revit file) at nite to do further work at home?

(I can see export material but its one at a time)

I didnt want to go down Octane stand alone file.

many thanks in advance.

The easiest way is to replicate your work environment at home. So the assets you need to track are:

Revit scene file - doesn't matter when you is copied to on your home PC
Revit texturemaps - these should be in the same folder on your home PC as at work (ie. C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\Materials\Textures)
LiveDb texturemaps - these will be in the folder specified in your plugin configuration - so set this to the same folder on both PC's and copy the files across
OCS/ORBX Proxies - - these need to be on the same folders on both PC's. So suggest storing them in c:\ProgramData\OctaneRenderForRevit\myProjectName, so that whole folder structure can copied/sync'd between PC's
Other Texturemaps and Proxies - these need to be on the same folders on both PC's. So suggest storing them in c:\ProgramData\OctaneRenderForRevit\myProjectName, so that whole folder structure can copied/sync'd between PC's

Hope this helps.

Paul
