Hi ceen,

A quick play suggests that the universal camera distortion texture works like a standard UV remapping. If you give it a basic Red-Green UV gradient then you get the original undistorted image. You can use OSL or other nodes to do stranger things.

Here's an example that let's you smoothly ...

Hi Aoktar!

Sorry, I didn't notice the date! Glad to hear it's all working well.

Hi Steven,

Have you tried using the OSL camera projection nodes? I don't know if they will solve your issue directly, but they are at least tweakable.

Hi all,

I've been working up an OSL baking camera and it works well with exception of motion blur. The camera is static whilst an object is moving in front of it. The object has an OctaneObject tag on it with MB enabled and works correctly when rendered with a ThinLens camera. The MB settings on ...

Shout if you need ...

Thanks Juanjo,

Great work. Loving the new features.

I'm guessing volume Vectron is still in the pipeline? If so, can I put in a vote to see it sooner rather than later? I've got an idea I'd love to try out with it.

Cheers,

James.

Thanks Juanjo,

I think I'm on the latest version. Does this look right to you?
Cheers,

Hi all,

I'm really struggling with Spectron volume lights in LW2015.3 and plugin version 2019.1.4.0. It crashes as soon as I add the volume light node.

The log shows this:
