Octane for Unreal Engine 0.48
Changes:
  • Support for Niagara MeshRenderer for particles
    *Sprite and other types will be added later
  • Added Octane 2022.XB.0 Enterprise support (See experimental build below)
  • Split the Updateflags into "enabled" and update" in the octane viewport
    • Turning off "Enabled" will stop the plugin from tracking the object type
    • Turning off "Update" will stop the plugin from updating the object type
    • Sequencer Protocols will ignore the update flags, and will update all enabled types
  • Added a "force update" button to the octane viewport. This will update objects regardless of "update flag" status. (useful for niagara particles)
    • "Force update" updates the game time in material shaders
  • Lights: "Visible in specular" is now turned off when specular scaling is close to 0 in unreal
  • Lights: Improved conversion of points that do not use inverse square law
Fixes:
  • Fixed space conversion transform issues in material conversion
  • Improved transforms to and from tangent space in material shaders
  • Fixed broken tangents and vertex colors in materials
  • Reduced generated OSL be removing unnecessarily included code
  • Octane nodes names in the OctaneGui now better reflect unreal names
