Re: Which feature do you need the most?

Outline render for toon shader.
5 years later, would love to see this feature. Just getting consistent line weights for concave and convex edges and silhouettes of objects would be incredibly enabling.

An Arnold-like toon shader would be great! At least give us something we can create blueprint ...

Insydium Meshtools mtSubDivider Repo Example with Octane

Hey there,

I was looking at the example scenes from Insydium repo and I was wondering how can I go about recreating this with octane?

The example file uses cycle material so I cannot convert it into Octane. What I'm after is to get the individual segments and colorize them.

Thanks.

Upcoming Meshlet/Nanite support

Hi there,

With the upcoming meshlet streaming in Octane 2023 is there any advantage of having a GPU with a high VRAM? I'm in the process of getting new GPU's and if meshlet technology will make the high VRAM on 4090/3090 series obsolete I would rather go with the 4080's to save some money.

Thanks.

Re: LiveDB freezing C4D

Will do. All I know is it started to happen after the server crash on 20th. I have already flushed my DNS but that didn't help.

LiveDB freezing C4D

This started to happen very recently. Whenever I try to open LiveDB Cinema4D hangs for a while then becomes unresponsive. Is there a server side problem?

Re: Motion Blur with Explosia Xparticles

Ah right. So it's not possible to create motion blur inside octane then.

Motion Blur with Explosia Xparticles

Hi there,

What's the correct procedure to get velocity data from the cached explosia volumes in order to create motion blur? In the cache object i'm including the vel data but when I load the vdb in the octane vdb loader it doesn't show the velocity data. Only Heat, fuel and density.

Thanks.

Re: Cinema4D version 2021.1.1-R2 (Stable 2021) 03.01.2022

I have tested couple of other old scenes that were created in 2020.2. All of them come with Non color data as default and incorrect Gamma. This is really frustrating because either I have to go through each node and set them to Linear sRGB + Legacy Gamma or replace the plugin every time I need to ...
