Re: Black Friday Sale?

Did anyone get an answer to this? I am an annual subscriber, but my maintenance isn't up for a few months. Does that mean I do not get the extra content?

Re: Export hair/splines to standalone

Hello,

just tried to get my c4d scene working inside standalone because I want to use RNDR for rendering.
Unfortunately after exporting as .orbx, the standalone does not show the fur of my character.

What I also tried is to use alembic instead of the c4d hair but thats also not working.

Re: Cryptomatte ObjectNodeName broken?

Thanks. I totally missed that huge disclaimer in yellow.
But Render ID passes are now gone, so what is the best way to get passes in groups again? Other than materials.

Cryptomatte ObjectNodeName broken?

I'm using latest stable 2020.2.4-R2.
If I give each object an object tag and a unique LayerID, and enable crypto pass ObjectNodeName, every object has the same color assigned to it in the cryptopass. Is there something else I'm missing? I am rendering EXR(Octane).

Re: Motion Blur on Splines with Octane ObjectTag

I am trying to get motion blur on a sweep, but its not working. Other objects in the scene are getting motion blur, but not the sweep. I am animated the growth of the sweep, not the position of the object. Is this possible?

Re: Hide HDRI Map from reflection on the ground

just so were clear, you are enabling this, correct?
This shouldn't show the reflections of the HDRI, just the reflections of any object on this Layer ID.

But I also agree, being able to "light link" the environment would be super helpful. If I could tell a ground plane to not see ...

Re: Hide HDRI Map from reflection on the ground

Have you tried the Render Layer option? Putting your character on one layer ID, then enable Render Layer with that one layer ID and enable black shadows and layer reflections. It works as intended sometimes for me. But not always.

Re: Reflection catcher?

It seems using the Render Layer option is the best way to do it for now.

In some good news, I'm working with the 2021 beta now and there might be a solution

Re: Excluding items from reflections

I am trying to figure this out as well. I have environment that I only want reflected in certain objects but not others.
