Re: Trying to understand how octane works with mograph

Capture.JPG Here is another screen shot.

I can get really controllable results as seen in the screen shot. Notice how i can control the gradient on the edge with different colors.

The problem comes in when I want the left field to be a different color than the right.

Any idea how to do this with ...

Trying to understand how octane works with mograph

Hey all.

I understand octane fairly well when it comes to something as basic as building scenes in c4d but once I start using instances and mograph, it all comes to a halt. I read the manual but still cant seem to do something like the following.

This first picture shows a simple cloner that has ...

Re: C4D Cloner Mograph Fields and Octane

as you can see in the screen shot its working in c4d as expected, but it wasnt working in octane in the live viewer it shows the difference. But now it seems to be working. Very strange, I dont know why it showed different results in the live viewer.

Thanks for the reply.

C4D Cloner Mograph Fields and Octane

Capture.JPG
Hi all,

I've been working c4d clones and fields. In c4d its really easy to set a field to control the color of the clones. But when i make a simple box field to control the color, then apply a octane color shader it doesnt conform to the results c4d shows. See screen shot.

Re: randomizing the texture on clones

On given page there is osl script included to download. Also you can always do that using standard C4D Mograph techniques and recreate it by using MG Color or Multi shader nodes in Octane.

The MG Color Shader doesnt let you get unique projections per clone. Thats why Bebe recommended the OSL ...

If that doesnt work make sure your project asset inspector shows that your HDRI is linked to the file on your hard drive.

randomizing the texture on clones

Hey all,

I have a simple cloner set up so i have a grid of cubes. I want the texture to appear as if each cube is unique, but my texture is applied in the same exact position on each cube. So it looks like an exact copy of the original cube. Is there any way to randomize the transformation of the ...

Re: AOV system has set me back in learning

Wow

Ok

So the video was helpful. Thank you.


The copy from the manual, well…your talking about a lot of new things. Some things I’ve never heard of before. Sure I get the basic idea of arbitrary passes but to try and visualize how this all works from your text is a bit demanding on your users ...
