Assembly Pipeline Foundations

Guide to key tools and file systems on the Render Network for Assembly Pipelines

There are a number of workflow tools, file systems, and libraries that are key to understanding in order to build successful assembly pipelines using Octane and the Render Network.

OCS vs ORBX

  • OCS: Saves the current layout (.ocs file), ideal for saving the master scene.

  • ORBX: Stores encapsulated objects (.orbx), ideal for asset libraries and importing.

Differential Upload

When preparing jobs for the Render Network using Render Network Manager, scenes are uploaded incrementally:

  • Only new or changed assets are re-uploaded

  • File trees and XRefs are respected

  • Saves time and bandwidth

For more comprehensive information about using Differential Uploading on the Render Network, please refer to the guide below.
