Hi, I think I have found a workaround.
When you Alt+drag a material into the Content browser (into the accordind lib4d library), the textures will not be copied into the lib4d. This way the path to the textures will not be altered, and Octane can handle them. This means when I build up a material ...

Re: C4D Presets for Octane missing texture
Same problem here. I have made a lib4d and put an Octane material with a texture into it. The content browser shows both, the material and the texture used in it. I can drag the texture (jpg) into the picture viewer and see it there.
Octane however can not open the jpg. The path of the texture is ...

Octane stops after 2 frames
Help! Octane won't render more than 2 frames. I rendered a whole animation just 10 minutes ago. Now, no matter what scene. even an empty one, Octane will stop after 2 frames. I rebooted my PC, deleted the C4D Plugin directory, reinstalled the Octane plugin. Nothing works.

Re: 3.08 Anisotropy Question
Nevermind I found the solution.
You have to use some other shading model that the native Octane BRDF Model. Here's a rundown for those of you interested.

3.08 Anisotropy Question
Hi there,
how do I use the new Anisotropy Rotation feature in the 3.08 preview?
What kind of image/shader can it put into that slot?
Thank you.

Bake texture with active octane light
Hi there,
somehow I can not render / bake a texture when I have an octane light active. Is this normal? I mean I would like to bake my textures with shadows that are cast by octane lights...
When I turn the light off everything works fine.
I use Alpha 6.1 on Windows 10.

Shine through material
Hello,
I am struggling with making a material that lets light that Comes from behind pass through like in this baloon example.
With all these Transmission, Medium, absorbtion and what not things, I am a bit lost. Can anyone help me out?
