Would it be possible to add DWA compression to the exr encoding?
It's supposedly 3 times smaller than B44

Would be great!

I read about this the other day and It seems really promising, I'm also curious about this too.

I believe both of these were added in 3.06 core - do you not see it in Standalone when exporting render passes? It gets me about 1/2 the size of zip overall :)

Oh really? I wonder why it isn't available in the C4D plug

Good to know, thanks Goldorak

It seems to be still missing in the C4D plug, gotta tell Ahmet.

I haven't seen this option has been added. But I'm using C4D's bitmap/saving functions. And it doesn't have this option.
