Re: Turbulence Fd and Octane simple question

I'm using LW 2020, and I cannot for the life of me get Turbulence FD volumetrics to show up in the IPR window. I've searched the forums, YouTube, and Facebook, and all of the settings that I've found are for pre-2018 versions of Lightwave.

Thanks;

That looks great!

What parameters did you use to get these kind of results? I'm sure that there were adjustments on both Embergen and Octane to get these kind of images. What I see in my in both standalone and the plugin are poorly defined blobs, overexposed flames and no dark smoke.

Thanks;

Re: New user help

Naturally, just a few minutes after posting this, I figured out that the Environment Texture and Power settings held the key to controlling the 'ambient' light. Now, I'm think I'm starting to figure things out. However, are there built in light sources like other rendering programs have, or are all ...

I've learned quite a bit since I purchased Octane, but I guess I must be pretty stupid in some areas. The problem I have now is with lighting in the Standalone version. My object is lit by a default light, that I can't find any controls for, and that I haven't found any reference to in the manual ...
