Weird edge on displaced specular metarial?
This always happens, when I use a specular material on a plane and that plane intersects with another object. What is it called and is there any way to not get it? It gets better when I turn up the resolution of the displacement shader, but it's still there when using an 8k image. Attached is a ...

Baking height map from texture?
Ok, so I'm probably too dumb to understand the manual, but can someone please share with me how exactly to bake a height map from a plane with a material with displacement on top in Octane?

Octane won't render hair? Specifically on clones.[SOLVED]
So, I'm totally having problems with hair.
I simply put just want to clone a patch of grass. What I do is make a disc > simulate hair > live render updates. But when I update the render, the hair often disappears? I have tried fiddling with the Heir Render tab under Render Settings, but alas ...

Re: Displacement mapping on e.g. extruded geometry?
Thanks a lot!
At first I didn't understand, but then I suddenly noticed the texture tag in the objects tab. And yes, that seemed to change it, so I'm guessing that's where the c4d projection is listed. Thanks again

Displacement mapping on e.g. extruded geometry?
I'm quite new to both c4d and octane, so please bear with me.
I'm having some problems trying to map displacement to e.g. extruded geometry. It seems I can get bump, diffuse, specular to fit properly changing the image texture to 'box' projection in the note editor. But displacement won't work. How ...
