Re: iPad Pro & Octane

Wow you’re right the iPad Pro M4 does work great with Octane! I just got one a few days ago and in addition to Octane also installed Nomad Sculpt, Procreate, and Valence 3D - which seems like a nice capable polygon modeler. Can’t find anything for converting between gLTF and USD though. Would be ...

Re: Texture baking of maps for remeshed objects?

Yes I have been doing it through Blender but for some reason when I try to bake the Roughness map it is coming out just black and white. So I thought I would see if Octane can do it. Not a huge issue I can always paint in a roughness map in Substance Painter or generate one from the diffuse map in ...

2024.1 - 29.15 - Stable or Beta?

The release page says OctaneRender™ for Blender 2024.1 - 29.15 [STABLE]

But the downloaded files for both the server and the DCC are labled Beta.

Which is it?

Texture baking of maps for remeshed objects?

How do I bake the Roughness & Metallic maps of a high poly mesh onto the new UV’s of a lower re-topologized object? Blender Cycles can do this as per the below video. Can I do
this in Octane Blender? And if so, how?

iPad Pro & Octane

I have an ancient IPad 4 that I haven’t used for several years as I just use my iPhone 12 Pro Max for photos, email, web browsing, or video watching when away from my desktops.

However, I was just offered a great deal from Affinity to update my Affinity Photo V1 license to the entire V2 suite of ...

Re: Which feature do you need the most?

The feature I need most is an updated manual :D

Especially for Octane Blender.

Re: Octane Render not working when RTX Acceleration is on

I just experienced this and could not figure out issue till I read this post - was terrified my GPU's (one 3090 and one 3080ti) were failing because all my Octane programs (Standalone & Octane Blender) were crashing with GPU's failed message.

Anytime I started to manipulate the viewport Octane ...

Re: Cryptomatte Halo around Objet ID at compositing in AfterFX

I’m often running into this issue as well. One thing that can sometimes help a bit is applying the ExtractoR filter and clicking the UnMult checkbox. It doesn’t always work but worth trying. And maybe look into your project’s color and linearization settings?
