Octane cameras don't appear when opening scenes. They tend to reappear once I've selected the camera view in the viewport.

Also, what is target mode in the camera settings?





A. win7
B. 2x580 1x 570
C. 16GB
D. 10.18.13.5330 353.30
E. not used
F. 3.03.4 - 4.21
G. Max Design 2014

HI Paride

Yeah, pretty much like in your vid.

Once I've selected the camera in the camera's viewport they tend to become, and stay visible.

Though when I make a new Octane camera there's no problem with visibility.

Cheers

Hi Rik,
I just verified and reproduced the issue you had.
I sent a file with the issue to developers Octane 3ds max plugin.
Thanks for your contribution.

Hi Rik,
We got 2 work around for now;
One is indeed to select the camera as view camera in one viewport, as detailed in those screenshots;
cam_draw_issue.jpg
Alternatively, creating a copy as an instance, then choosing 'make unique' in this instance also makes the camera visible again..

Hopefully, we'll get a cleaner fix soon..
Thanks,
