orbx file blury output

When sending an orbx file to standalone, animation is very blurry.
Is there any way to control this?
Is there any way to import a .obj file like the stand alone with all materials?
It is a real pain to do this manually.

I need to check the motion blur settings when exporting to standalone, perhaps something is broken. Can you send me a sample LightWave scene with this problem?

Anyway, can I ask why are you exporting animations from LW to the Standalone? ... usually you should be able to render the scene from LightWave without problems ;)

About the .obj file format, are you talking about importing in LightWave scenes or objects from Standalone?

I am exporting to standalone because I send camera data and animation info. Then I replace mesh with an obj mesh so I do not have to rebuild materials every time in Octane for Lightwave.
I design homes in chief Architect and export mesh and materials in obj format. these can have hundred of materials. Every time I update the plan and bring into Octane for Lightwave I have to rebuild these materials.

Is there an easier way to do this.

If you load in the modeler the old object with all the octane materials, you could remove all the geometry and copy/paste the new OBJ (of course, also loaded in the modeler) over the original one, replacing the geometry but without lose the materials. Should be easy with few clicks.

But every time I design a new house with new materials I would have to do this manually again.

ORBX works in 2.17 without blurriness.
Good news :)

What versions of the plugin and the Standalone are you using? The last ones are the 2.24 version, do you have problems with them?
