Thanks I'll check it out.

Hi, I would like a subsurface scattering shader and a metal shader so I can get more control. Thanks.

If I understand rightly, the Grass Essential is just a very good models of grass and nothing more. If so, you definitely can use it into Octane for Blender. Why not? :)

I'm not sure (actually I have a guess) why you have problems working with instances but take a look at one of my scenes. There ...

While all these features are awesome and I am really excited about the ZBrush integration. Why can't they be added to version 2? How did we get from version 2.21 to 3? What happened to versions 2.3 - 2.9?

Thank you Sara I will give this a try. With my usual settings particle type was set to emitter and not hair and to scatter in the object data panel. I was just following along with Andrews tutorial which can be found here: http://www.blenderguru.com/tutorials/ma ... dow-scene/

Unfortunately the Grass Essentials does not work with Octane Blender all that well because of the render server. It all has to do with how the grass essentials works. Anything above 20,000 in the emissions panel will probably not load because of the render server and you need 500,000 in order for ...

Wow. Great job.

I could be wrong but I believe black means transparency. It's like a float value where 0 = transparent(black) and white = opaque.

I saw a video on youtube showing Brigade in the Unreal Engine 4. How will Brigade work with UE4?
How will Brigade work in general?
Will it have its own physics system/particle system?
Will it incorporate ...
