OTOY Forums

Seems like Otoy made it possible to have instances in iToo Forest. We emailed about railclone and itoo told us it depends on Otoy when are they willing to make it happen. Any eta when railclone will support instances and not copies
thank you

Unfortunately we cannot implement compatibility with Octane. This must be done by Otoy, in same way they did with Forest.
But currently you can use RailClone Tools, which is compatible with any renderer. It creates instances as separated objects, which are recognized by Octane.

In case of any further question or doubt please don't hesitate to contact us. Have a nice day.

Best regards,

Can we get some answer?

Hi,
As you know, all plugins are subject to Octane Octane SDK.
The Octane 3dsMax developers plugins may not edit SDK.
I'll try to focus Railclone needs and then ask if the SDK developers could introduce it and timing.

Karba version worked perfectly with Railclone.
I used a lot of times.
Don't know about the latest Railclone + Octane for Max upgrades.
Render plugin programmers should look at the most popular Max tools and interface with them. Cooperation is important.

I see thanks
so they did something and now instead of instances we get copies.

Wasn't that the reason for the massive ball-ache of version 3 - so that it would work with other plugins?
