Hello,
I've created one tree in Rhino / Grasshopper that uses instances as leaves.
Now I would like to transform this tree in ORBX model, to reimport it later as Proxy ORBX in Rhino. The problem is that if I export the model in OBJ or FBX to create an ORBX file in Octane standalone, I lose the instances (each leaf is exploded) and I lose the big deal of leaves as instances.
Unfortunately, I think to know already the answer...but I ask anyway if some genius has one solution or workaround to maintain the "instances inside instances".
Thanks,
Roy

I don't think the plugin export functionality is setup to do that. It is designed to export the scene for rendering in Octane Standalone. You really need a tree model (in OBJ or ORBX format) and then use that on the Block Instance (using the plugin Geometry->Load OBJ/ORBX buttons).

ok, thanks,Roy
