Render Room Rendering

You can now render from directly inside the render room. To do so you need to switch the Renderer to Octane Renderer. The ‘Enable’ option does nothing so you can ignore it. Just verify your output settings and click Render. If the Octane Viewport or Settings is open then they will be closed when you start a render in the render room. I have not tried the batch queue so please let me know if it is working or not.

There are limitations when using the Render Room to render:

Saving EXRAlso known as OpenEXR. This image file format was developed by Industrial Light & Magic and provides a High Dynamic Range image capable of storing deep image data on a frame-by-frame basis., HDR, or Deep Images are not supported at this time.
Camera and object motion blur is not supported at this time.
Render PassesRender passes allow a rendered frame to be further broken down beyond the capabilities of Render Layers. Render Passes vary among render engines but typically they allow an image to be separated into its fundamental visual components such as diffuse, ambient, specular, etc.. are not supported at this time.
Abort only aborts rendering when the current frame is finished. The only way to stop a single frame render before max samples is reached is to kill Carrara from the Window’s Task Manager.

Known issues (to be fixed in a later release):

There is no statistical feedback. No estimates, no pixel per second, just the current frame of an animation.
If you override the Camera position in the Octane Viewport then the rendered image in the render room will not be correct.
