Hi guys.
It looks that i am now able to use the octane ROP to render an .orbx without getting the message, "this feature is not available with houdini indie".
Does SESI has now allow houdini Indie to export .orbx ? or is it a lucky bug ?

I would also like to know if the houdini .orbx exporter is full featured ? or if it has restriction and things that are not exported yet ?
i ask this because on a very trivial scene,
- geo + simple shader were exported correctly
- camera was not exported
- environment + daylight environment setup were not exported

Cheers

We are talking about this in the latest build topic:

Thanks,

thanks for your fast answer juanjo it explains everything
- indie can now export only proxy so it's a restricted feature exporter
- it might change in the near futur

i'm quite sure i have see somewhere on sesi build updates that mantra .ifd export restriction has been removed , but i need to put my hands on the evidence.

Cheers

I'm still talking with SideFX, but it is possible that in the near future we could finally remove all these limitations while working in Houdini Indie

Thanks,

Juanjo, I was wondering if you have any news on this subject ?
Is it now possible to get full feature orbx export with houdini indie ?

Cheers

Yes, I think that this restriction has been removed a long time ago, hasn't it?

Thanks,
