Smoke Volume Not Appearing in Renderer?

Hi,

Ive created an Octane volume object in Cinema 4D (basically some smoke). I can see it fine in the 'Live Viewer Window' but when I go to actually render it out properly it doesnt show up! :shock:

I guess some option must be disabled but cant see anything that relates to it. Thanks for the help 8-)

Have you changed somethings on render settings under Octane Render? There's some meaningful reasons why I made DEFAULT the "Resend Only Updated Objects" + "Auto Detect".
The Plugin is different than others by having a state engine and just updates changed parts of scene. LV has "All Movable=NO" by default and "Auto Detect" is checking the scene to detect which objects will be movable. It's important to have same object structure for LV vs. PV to get same results.

Thanks! It was an old project file which is probably why it was using the old settings.
