Batch render multiple ORBX files in a queue?

Hi There,

Only just started using Octane but went through the hassle of exporting all my shots out as animated packages from C4D as .orbx files then realised I can't load them all into the batch render at once to queue up over night!

Maybe I can actually do this but just can't see how.

Could anybody enlighten me please?

Thanks a lot

Gaz

There is a new feature that isnt fully implemented that will allow you to do this.

Bring all of your orbx files into Octane. Ungroup them so you have access to all of your render targets in the same area.

Create a Batch render job for each render target. Then create a render job group and plug all the batch render jobs into the render job group.
Right click on the render job group and select "start render job".

This seems to add another level of complexity to matters and there is also the issue of have lots of potentially large scenes pulled into one project which could result in memory issues. How hard would it be just to have a window where we can line up our orbx and render one by one?
