Out of curiosity, would it be possible to add a 0 ms option to the plugin latency drop menu for super-fast computers? (such as RTX-30 powered machines, etc) The current minimum is 100 ms. It would be nice to see the viewport refresh as quickly as Octane standalone, though I recognize that might not ...

I'm not sure if this is what you are referring to, but you can export materials as an orbx file, which I believe can be imported into other octane plugins...maybe?

Another important thing to consider is how many ports you need. Personally, I’ve got three monitors, a TV, and a VR headset. (5 ports for me)

The 3090 takes up 3 slots but only has 4 ports. (Though I have noticed some of the third party cards seem to squeeze in a fifth). 2 FE 3080s would give you ...

Primarily what I want to know is whether this blue bar gets doubled with two cards or not.

While I’m currently a single-GPU limited free user (on 2 GTX 1080s), that could change, so in the interests of future-proofing:

Given that 3090s cost double that of 3080s (at least in a hypothetical world where scalpers don’t exist...) it would seem to me that 2 3080s would be a far more ideal ...

Thanks! That seems to have worked.

Thanks! The highlight details are from normal maps.

Yes, there is SSS, though it's pretty subtle. I thought having the SSS map multiplied with a red RGB node looked a bit better than with just the SSS map which looked a little too bright on the shadows to me...

But what do you think?


EDIT: Hmm ...

How am I doing? (Be sure to full view)
Octane 4
- R4.2.1.44

Feel free to critique with suggestions.

That appears to have worked, thanks Paul!

Is anyone else experiencing a DazStudio crash when they try to replace a texture map?

I'm using R3.6.5.33, and I am experiencing a recurring crash whenever I try to change the texture map of any object/material.

For example:

- new scene

- I load a prop or figure

- I apply auto materials

- I go ...
