Re: How to render with clean alpha for compositing?

Hey, Jayroth - thanks again for your help!
Going though your steps I think I figured out how to get this working, and what I was doing wrong. It seems like changing over to path tracing made a lot of difference - I was trying to get a quick render with GI diffuse, but I think it had problems with ...

Re: How to render with clean alpha for compositing?

Hey, thanks very much for getting back to me on this. I'll try rendering a few frames with these settings.
Having done some experiments I've got fairly clean alphas, but there's still an apparent halo / darkening on feathered parts of the alpha.
Thanks for your advice!

How to render with clean alpha for compositing?

Hey everyone,
Apologies if this has come up previously.
I'm rendering a shot where I'll be rendering with alpha and replacing the sky with a different on in After Effects. I've never been able to achieve a fully clean alpha out of the render with Octane, and I've always got by with matte chokers ...

Re: how to get same detail as TFD CPU render in Octane?

Hi Haze

It's rendering high-res print imagery for advertising)

Hey, just thinking sideways a bit here, but if it's a print / still thing, I'd imagine you'd be much better off forgetting about rendering the smoke / atmos / volumetrics, and do yourself a favour and look to source some high-res ...

Re: Function of 'UV Set' parameter in Imagetexture

Hey, thanks for letting me know.
I know c4d doesn't support multiple UV maps, I was wondering if this was a method for 'unlocking' such a feature.
Thanks

Function of 'UV Set' parameter in Imagetexture

Hey guys,
I was wondering if anyone could please explain the function of the 'UV Set' parameter in the imagetexture node? It's available once you click on 'projection'

Ideally I'm looking to use multiple UV maps to add decals to a texture - is this the key to doing it? When I change the param to ...

Re: Version 2.24.2-R1.1 (11.01.2016) - Latest stable

Hi,
I actually ran into problems with this release:
- It would render without problems without multipass, but with multipass turned on it would send the scene to the GPU and then just say 'frame finished' on a black frame.

- I found it much less stable, and immediately ran into several crashes on ...

Re: v3 dev update

Hey,
Thanks for the update, really looking forward to exploring the new features!
Echoing a similar sentiment to those metnioning FumeFX in Max, as a Cinema 4d user, would be awesome to render TurbulenceFD simlations as volumes. Hope this is on you guy's to-do list!
Thanks for the awesome software ...
