Matrix Object / Octane Tag like in RS

Hey Guys,

I just realised that the Octane Tag on a Matrix-Object doesn`t recognize the Matrices as Particles like Redshift does
so that Octane would render them. Does anybody know if this is going to be implemented?

What happens when you put it to scatter object as distribution input?

hi aoktar, the Chief himself- cool :)

yes- I tried that. And it works. But unfortunately not for animations
even if I cache the matrix anination with mograph cache. Or am I missing something?

Update problem? Scatter needs to detect changes for animation, otherwise will be static

Yes- when I update the render it is correct.

but when I try to render my animation, even if mograph / matrix object are cached before
it will not be rendered in picture viewer.
it stays static from the first frame. scatter-clones are not moving with the animated matrices.

Drop a sample scene to let me test it
