I currently do not know the best way to import a obj scene from Blender into Octane, view the scene and add more objects/make changes with out having to delete the OBJ node in Octane (after adding new meshes to my OBJ file or adding to my scene/making changes in Blender), I then have to reconnect all the nodes to the freshly imported new OBJ scene in to Octane. With out a doubt there is a way and im just too dumb/tired to figure out the work flow at this time of the morning
If I am wrong and there is not a way to re import a OBJ scene with out having to disconnect/re-connect all the nodes to the OBJ in Octane, I would recomend that the user right clicks on the node for the obj scene and has the option to re-import/refresh the OBJ file (kind of like refresh/update with out disconnecting nodes) please?
Oh and while im here, How about an updated OFFICIAL plugin/script for the new Blender API/changes (2.58/2.59/2.60a would be nice) The sales pitch saying you have blender support kinda felt a little misleading as it came accross that Blender 2.5 would work "out of the box" rather than having to use 2.49 for official support. Or as a new user to Octane, trying to fumble around the forums looking for a way to mix & match the right (most up to date stable version) of Blender (official build) with the various versions of scripts/plugins hiden around the forum that all have their pros & cons/bugs or important missing feature. Before buying Octane it looked like all you have to do (by assumption) was click a button to import your blender scene and click another button in Octane to update and changes made (at any point in time) in Blender!
I do not intend to offend any persons efforts regarding Octane/plugin development, its important that this is clear. Please excuse my lack of experience/knowledge in the Octane work flow and forgive me for being new
I have enjoyed my early steps getting use to Octane over the last few days but, I am sadly struggling with the Blender-Octane work flow and Blender-Octane version date matching! This being my 2nd day with Octane (3rd if you count the fact that I have been up all night messing about) means I am off to get some sleep. When I awake I will start the process of viewing as many youtube/web (etc) tutorials on Blender and Octane as I can get my grubby little hands on
(like I said ages ago!).. Im just too dam addicted to this software already...lol
