How to export my animation ?

Hi,
I have bought octane three days ago with the Modo plug-in and I'm very enthusiast.
There's just something I can't do, sorry for this newbie question.

I need motion blur in my animations, with characters animated by joints. So I've understood that I need to export the animation in the Octane sStandalone.
The "octane.command exportAlembic" does nothing for me. The "octane.saveAnimation [name]" is working, but my deformed meshes by bones are not moving at all in the Octane Standalone. The animated items that are not driven by bones are perfectly moving.

What am I doing wrong ?

Hi. Try unticking the Load All Frames into Octane checkbox then use the octane.saveAnimation command.

Ok, I've found it, it was because I have to disable the "use Modo render cache" in the prefs. Now it works.

Sorry again for the newbie question and thank you.

And congratulations for this work !
