Why can't i connect anything other than a Image node (rgb image, greyscale image) to the Displacement node?
And it doesnt take the Image node properties into account either... Power, gamma and invert does nothing!

Don't say i have to buy 3.0 to get these features.

Displacement node, doeas it only take a texture node? No mix texture node?

Another thing, is there no more updates for the 2x version?

Cool, thanks.

What is your planned features for future updates?

Things like:
- object properties(visible to camera, castshadows)
- standard max maps(bitmap control etc)

Any chance to see this improved?

Getting the transform from an object in max is as you wrote, $.transform. (4 point3's -> point3 = [0,0,0]) The last point3 is the position/translation.
The problem is probably that max up vector is Z and octane up vector is Y (i would guess).

You could try to switch the y and z values in each ...

YES FOG YES

One question, would it be possible to add a fast fake fog as a post process aswell?
Using the zdepth buffer multiplied with environment colors and then overlayed like the bloom... or something like that?

Ah i see! Anyway, we need mb!
..and some fog. That's all i ask.

Well it was interpolating between frames afaik, so i would call that full mb. Or do you mean tied to camera properties (shutter)?

does this mean octane motion blur is now integrated into Max, as oppose to using the multipass MB, which ...
