Can somone test if you can save animations in the latest enterprice build.
I can't save animations anymore.
The frames won't save.
Can you provide more details please? What does the Octane Log show? Are there any errors displayed? How are you trying to same the animation?

Thanks

This is a bug and will be fixed in the next release. In the meantime, add the nodegraph via the the Schematic->Add->Channel Modifier-> Modifier->Octane dropbox menu.

I have updated the installers at the top of this thread with:

2018.1.2.143
- Compiled with Octane 2018.1.2
- Implemented performance improvements when loading and updating scenes with large numbers of mesh items with Live Geometry Update on
- Changed the Preferences->Default Live Geometry Update from Off to On (given the above performance improvements)
- Changed the Preferences->Update on Mouse Button Release to Off
- Fixed crash when adding a camera or duplicating a camera when the Viewport was open
- Added "Viewport Refresh Interval" to the Preferences->Octane panel and set the default Viewport Refresh Interval to 30ms
- Re-arranged "Create Texture" menu items in the Schematic to match Octane Standalone

NOTE: The "New Nodegraph" button is not working. I will fix this, bit In the meantime, add the nodegraph via the the Schematic->Add->Channel Modifier-> Modifier->Octane dropbox menu.

Tharso, a few of us asked for this change because it makes more sense to be able to move items by default in new scenes.

You have a few options:
* select all your meshes and disable mesh > "live geometry update"

OR

* Change preferences > rendering > octane > default live geometry update = OFF, and restart modo

OR

* I havent tested this, but in the octane viewport, press the "no live geometry" button. This gets saved to a channel, and will be remembered per scene

Did you actually test this out in the new build?
