new materials

[billyjoe2014]

Hi, I just created some new materials using the grouping tool for several body parts and when loading Octane to test render and make any necessary adjustments, I repeatedly get the following python statements:
Traceback (most recent call last):

May I suggest updating to the latest release of the OctaneRender for Poser plugin, and seeing if that fixes your issue.

Will do,
thanks

No, same error message and then the plugin hangs at "Working,,, Checking and Converting Materials, Please Wait...."
I checked the plugin version and it's now updated to the latest.

Essentially its a character wearing armor with multiple separate cr2s, but the armor dos not cover the entire body. The solution was to alter the body parts that showed with new material assignments, in this situation, a chainmail texture.

thanks.

Thanks. Can you pls post the new error msg (it will have different line numbers to the original msg - allowing me to trace into the line of code causing the issue).

Ok, here it is:

Hi Billyjoe - that error does not look quite right. I have recompiled the plugin and refreshed the 2.24.1.60 installer. Could you pls re-download and install it and provide the resulting error output here?

Thanks

Just noticed that my version of Poser Pro 2014 has always been installed on the E:\ drive and the above message refers to the C:\ drive?
