You will also need to activate motion blur in the Octane Render settings, and the Octane Camera tag as well, where you can specify the shutter speed (0.02 to mimic a film camera). Also, make sure you have an Octane tag on the top of your mesh tree, set up for motion blur (if you want it). Make sure that you also have an Octane Camera to render from, and that your lights are Octane lights, or C4D lights with an Octane tag. Select Octane in the Render Settings panel to get things the way you want them. Adjust your settings in the Render Settings Panel, making sure to choose Octane as your renderer. If you like the settings you have in the LiveView, you can transfer those settings with a menu item (sorry, cannot recall the exact name of it ATM). You set up your animation for output as you would any renderer. Is there anyway to just export the animation into a PNG Sequence or MOV or MP4 straight from the C4D plug-in?Īhmet is correct, of course. I tried to look on the forums and they were talking about sending various different file types to the Stand Alone and then exporting camera data and then exporting a video file. I wait for 20 minutes and not a dent in the render - I check the output folder and not a single PNG was created (trying to get a PNG sequence). However, when I add my animation (15s/450f) to Render Queue and hit export, nothing happens. How do I export animations from C4D/Octane? The Live viewer works fine - renders the current frame in like 20-30 seconds. This is going to be a super-noob question, but I just can't figure it out. However, I'm having difficulty understanding how to render my animation. The lighting and texturing is pretty easy to wrap my mind around.

I've been using Maxwell for some time now and picked up Octane 3 for Cinema4D R16 this week.
