Thanks Mitchino :)

>>I'm sure this is stating the bleeding obvious, but your Octane material needs to be pink
Lol. Yellow it is. The pink gums material I forgot to change to yellow :)

Ill try the falloff node. Haven't tried it before, and I'll reduce the dimpled effect of the bump.
But really, I'd ...

Hi all,
I really tried my best before posting. So I'm asking for help if someone could let me know how to get the "Gums" material look I want in Octane.

The material that looks nice is the pink "Gums" in the render below. It's a default material in Cinema 4D --->Load Material --->Visualize ...

I also vote for an over/under (also called top/bottom) stereo format.
This makes it easier for Youtube production as well as is a standard of sorts when editing in Premier and After effects.

Regards.

- will there be any benefit, whatsoever, in running multiple instances of Cinema 4D (and octane) on the same Laptop Asus Rog (config Win 8, 24 GB ram , Nvidi 980M (4gb ram) )
Or am I just going to be ...

I've been a bit late in replying, buried in tutorials
Thanks for the extra tips and advice, bepeg4d

Meanwhile, here's the disgusting material, I came up with


still hoping for that SSS effect of the first image.

I have to start with a disclaimer. I'm only now learning Cinema4D and Octane.
Previously used the free octane VR with Poser and fell in love with it.

I've followed a tutorial on creating a blood vessel here: http://monovfx.com/tutorials/blood-cells-flow-tutorial/
(the project file is also for ...

Aoktar, :)
You beat me to it. Thanks for the logical answer.
I'm typing this, even as the render is going on now. Yes it was the Metaball subdivision count . It was set to 5 (for the render) and in the editor I was working at 40.
Set it 40 now , with no degradation in quality on output.

Thanks for ...

Ok some further digging and I think I may have found the culprit..

Metaball within a cloner.

I have a plane about 10 segments made into a metaball.
This is dropped into a cloner for radial clones totaling 24.

This is what seems to be killing the main Octane Render and making it spit out black ...
