Update on DAZStudio plugin development

[BK]

Would it be possible to share a Daz scene via PM?

Ok, but I'm not sure how I can share a full scene with you. DAZ is notorious for not being able to export stand-alone packages that include library assets. Any suggestions?

Hi Jazbee,

Thanks so much for the post.

The *Complete Scene* export would export Octane Standalone single frame ORBX and for animation OctaneRender for Daz only export .ocs as a workaround.
Please use the *Start Export* from the System tab then in Standalone *Save as Package* from the file menu to pack the ORBX scene.

cheers

Hi nobuo,

Thanks for the post!
We plan to work only with the stable Octane until we fix major long-time bugs in our OctaneDaz plugin.
Hope you will understand!

BK are there any plug-in development updates you can share with us? Also was there any other issues that needed to be tested or has most of the major stuff been documented/being worked on?

Hi Sorel,
Thank you for the follow-up!
At the moment we need some time to catch up with Daz app workflow for both Dev and me!
The last time we were looking into these two issues Image Browser crash (viewtopic.php?f=145&t=78594) and texture fail to load(viewtopic.php?f=145&t=78519).
We will post a build once these two issues are fixed.

Is it currently possible to add the vdb functionality to the daz plugin?

[mikefix]

Does this plugin work with Daz 4.20? I've tried installing it multiple times and it still doesn't appear in Daz. I use the Daz install manager for the installation. Any help would be appreciated!

There is no DIM install for the octane plugin. Are you talking about the octane render kit over at daz? Cause all that is is presets for the plugin.

Hi Sorel,

Daz 4.20 works on my workstation. Please find the screenshot below.
Please try installing with Daz central instead of the Daz install manager!

Hi Sorel,

yeah, we would check with our dev if it is possible to add the vdb functionality.
For now, please export the scene as Alembic that would create Octane .ocs and add the vdb as a workaround!

cheers
