I'm making maps using terrain data, displaced meshes and Google Earth as textures, but the textures always looks like ass.

Realizing a stylized version would work, I'm wondering if it's possible to make an Octane material that samples the average color pr. polygon of the texture?
Removing the phong ...

Thanks for the reply - yeah that solved it.
I don't even know what that does (yet), is there any reason why it wasn't reset when I reset setting I could think of?

Literally everything else worked except pathtracing in that C4D scene, even when resetting every setting I could, both Octane and C4D settings.
Tried turning denoiser on/off, no volumes.
It actually renders through the samples, but everything's black. No errormessages from the LiveViewer.
I solved ...

One minute everything's fine, have been working on the scene for two days, doing test renders, all good.
Then I'm enabling Render Passes to get my Z-pass - dumbest mistake of my life.
Pathtracer turns black (both Live view and Render to Picture Viewer), and I can't get it to render for the life of ...

Thanks for the update! 2 things that i found :

1/ octane crash with a background object from c4D
2 / solo node is working just when you add a transform node to it!

I have this as well.

This might be related, but Octane Motion Blur isn't working as expected in one of my projects containing a lot of particles as well.

It worked when I first set it up, but when I cranked the number of particles the motion blur suddenly just disappeared.
There's a time shift when I enable/disable it ...

I'm working my way through the Octane manual, so sorry if I've missed anything basic.
Haven't found the same problem on YouTube or the forum either.

I've built a simple whirlwind particle scene in C4D, and want to convert it to Octane.
I've applied the Octane ObjectTag to the emitter, dropped the ...
