Just want to vocalize that the lack of UDIM (and other multi tile texture formats) is quite a big omission.
When I bought the beta, it was a newer feature to the world of rendering... it is _standard_ now in _all_ VFX and feature animation houses (I imagine much less so in the archviz world).

I'm at work for the time being, I'll try to post something for you later tonight.

Not with proper offset and shift type movements. It's the same plane and focal origin (sensor or camera pivot doesn't move, lens around it does), just a different section, even if you could manually combine them later, it's possible.

White will make make the material diffuse, and black will make it specular/reflective if you map the roughness with a black and white map.

Use a checker, you will see what I mean.

Then apply the inverse to the specularity.

Is something like T-join an option? Upon initializing an 8k render, a series of 4 4k's are fired off and then merged?

Thanks fellows, anyone interested in the rest of the geo coming down the pipe for him can have a look here

It's the modeling thread at ZBC, I'll only be posting octane renders here, but as I say, if you want to see where it's going ...

Something I had begun with Vray, but now I want to complete with Octane instead

The rest of the geo is done, just a whole lot more texturing to go.

Maybe tesla's or quadros can go higher (8192)?

My 5800 snaps back to 4k

by the way ,. could we get a way to lock the camera ? it woudl allow me to do some mask rendering after having rendered the main image .

Yes bookmarks would be killer.

The reposition button is nice for when you get lost, but the panning leaves a bit to be desired. Hopefully the rethink how it works.
