Export ORBX animated package for RNDR not allowing file path

Hey there. I exported an ORBX animated package for RNDR from the Liveviewer from a pretty hefty project. It allows me to choose a path to save, then does it's thing normally.

But after that first time, now when I try and export an animated package - whether from the Liveviewer or from the render settings, it exports 1 frame of a render to the Picture Viewer and doesn't actually export an ORBX animated sequence from the Liveviewer. Has this happened to anyone?

Addendum:

Seems like there is a bug possibly? Exporting OBX sends to picture viewer no matter what... but when I try to render an animation, it only renders the current frame I'm on... even though I have "all frames" set in settings, or even setting a manual # of frames... it still only renders the current frame my playhead is on. I'm going to try and uninstall and reinstall Octane, but any extra info would be great. Thanks!

If anyone else runs into this/it can help anyone else, the only way I was able to fix things I think is copy all geometry and paste it into a brand new blank C4D project... and then redo all of my Octane kernel settings/AOV render settings.

All, following up here. Does anyone else have this problem?

It happens when I try and open the project from a different computer and export ORBX for RENDER animated package. It runs through the scene how it should, but unless I'm on the computer I originally set the saved location for the ORBX, it doesn't save the file. I have to do it from the computer I set the save location on and it just overwrites the previous ORBX file.

Anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
