Re: OctaneRender® 2026.1 [current 2026]


Hello guys,
The new displacement is completely broken when used in conjunction with a normal or bump map. Please see attached. It completely breaks the UV's

Please can this be looked at?

For landscapes, using mix material this will be super important, and means we will need to use the old ...

Re: Memory stats display issue

There are images info to be corrected too:
- RGB 32/64 should be written instead of Rgb32/64
- Grayscale 8/16 instead of Grey8/16

Re: Octane 2026.1 for Cinema4D - v1.8

New texture displacement renders 8-10 times longer compared to old one. Also There is height difference in old and new displacement with the same texture.

Re: OctaneRender® 2026.1 [current 2026]

Texture displacement at "high quality" mode is still not usable. Viewport is slow and renders 10 or more times slower compared to normal mode. Switching the texture size to 16k makes the viewport to freeze.

Re: Octane 2027 Roadmap and Beyond

These features look impressive! Thanks for sharing the roadmap.

Any chances you go back to current tools and improve them as well especially:
- scattering needs improvements in usability, object limit needs to be increased and vertex map support is needed,
- a dedicated quick denoising enabler is ...

Re: OctaneRender® 2026.1 Beta 2 [current 2026]




"Normal" is the old texture displacement.

Normal does not do anything in Beta 2 build. Are there any additional steps to make it work?


The "normal" quality (old texture displacement) only works with image nodes (or baking texture). If you still can't get it to working, please provide a ...

Re: OctaneRender® 2026.1 Beta 2 [current 2026]

Hi,
thanks for the new build.

I've tried new displacement and there are few issues:
- there is no old texture displacement
- viewport performance very bad eg. a mesh with displacement renders with 3 fps and without 40fps
- rendering performance is 4 times slower with displacement enabled
- when ...
