Hey all! I've been bouncing around various programs during the isolation period we're all going through and lately I've been peeking through Unreal's material editor. One feature I've found that is AMAZING is called "Depth Fade".

Basically, you can force any material to feather as it intersects ...

Hey there, thanks!

I did try with the Pre-Multiply alpha option on and still no use.

I'm wondering if this isn't a problem with render layers and not alpha? If I render all as one pass there's no line. But there's always a line when I render shadow and beauty separately as an Octane Multipass.

@Jayroth No problem at all! Thanks for helping regardless!!

have the same issue, I tried to solve it but everytime i have white or black outline. And if i disable partial alpha, the result is unitilisable.

@Samuel.fiser So I was able to come up with a sort-of-solution.

I spent most of my EOD ...

@Jayroth

Update: Tried your fix. Still no luck. Having the exact same problem as before. As I said in my original post, the line is a line of alpha between the passes. It's not a white outline around the layer.

We all run into this the first time we need a clean alpha :)

Not exactly sure what ...

Thanks for the reply @jayroth

I'll give that a shot. Will it mess with my HDRI at all?

I'll report back with the results!

Hey there!

I've been searching the forums for a while now trying to figure out a solve for this problem. I've got two passes: A beauty and a shadow. Both rendered with the same settings, each rendering a different set of layers marked with the Octane Object tag.

When I drop them in AE, I get a ...

R3 seems to have fixed the crashing on startup. Woohoo! Thanks!

Also, is Vectron supported on the Octane Subscription (Studio) build this release? While checking out the new features, I noticed I don't have a Vectron button in the Objects tab in the LV.

Thanks for all you do!

You probably downloaded the wrong installer. You have to download the specific installer that corresponds to your license type or you won't be able to log in.

I seem to be having the same issue as some others on here.

When starting up C4D R19 on V4.02.1-R2, the program will open and hang before the grid appears, immediately becoming unresponsive. Restarting/reinstalling/clean installing didn't solve it.

I had to roll back to the previous version and it ...

UPDATE: I figured out a fix but it's weird and I'm apparently too dumb to understand what's going on. :D

The problem was with an Octane Volume medium loaded with an Open VDB file. Enabled, the plane is visible regardless of material options. Disabled, the plane displays as it should according to ...
